If that's true, then does that make electric vehicles into potential car bombs if "the right thing" is injected into the battery?

This wasn't something magical that turned the battery into an explosive, they allegedly injected an explosive compound into the battery which would be triggered by intentionally overheating the battery.

Like if you packed C4 into an electric car battery, it would be a bomb, much the same way if you packed it into an ordinary empty box. Sure the battery adds some extra energy, but the explosive is the explosive, ya know.

If you add explosives to a car, it becomes a potential car bomb, yes. Doesn't matter what the power source is.
