This bill amends federal motor vehicle safety standards to require new electric and hybrid vehicles to be equipped with technology for safely managing battery fires. Specifically, it mandates that vehicles include first responder access technology for battery extinguishment, thermal runaway suppression, safeguards to prevent fire breaching the passenger compartment, and standardized battery placement to assist firefighters. The bill also requires mechanical door releases operable without electrical power and directs the Secretary of Transportation to publish firefighter training guidance and the Secretary of Health and Human Services to study health impacts of battery fires on first responders.
