2 Teslas set on fire in Amsterdam within a few hundred feet by Tesla haters

One of the owners of the Teslas said that he had camera images showing the arsonists, he told Dutch AT5. Apparently these are people who are either against electric car progress or Tesla haters.

Strikingly these Tesla cars were parked only few hundred feet apart from one another. This feeds the idea that this is a targeted action for these Tesla owners. "I do not think that's a coincidence. it's an expensive car. They want to teach us a lesson. It is clearly focused Tesla's," told one of the owners to AT5 media.

According to the owners of these Teslas, the car fire took place around 4.30 am. "My wife woke me up, the alarm of the car went off," says an owner to a local station. "Because of the smoke and the smell it was soon clear that it was arson."

The police have started an investigation into the arson. A third car has also been damaged by the fire. It was not revealed what types of Teslas they were, but judging from the images those were Model S vehicles.

I can't believe this is happening in the 21st century. Do you think someone can be so much against a car company to burn them on the streets? Please let us know what you make of this in the comments section below.
