Not a surprise. Texas just had a power outage when 6 power plants went off line. Friend is an electrical contractor and said demand for backup generators has gone crazy in the last comes years. Just last week he installed 2 at private residence and averages at least 2 per month. On EV vehicles people don't realize the power requirements for quick chargers. Most are 50 amps and up.

At first Lagono's team though they could fix it. It broke both upper and lower control arms on the rear but it only broke the upper A-frame on the front and bent the frame mounts on the bottom control arm.

The pic is the good side of the front. 2nd pic is starting it and working on the wrap
