That is probably the expected result. If it were a battery powered submarine, I'd expect no issues. But a high voltage device never intended to be submerged.... expect an event.

Ever see a transformer blow up? High voltage, lots of stored energy... shorts out. Kaboom.

Putting a car like that under water is pretty much shorting out everything. Shorting out that much stored energy is going to be a big event.
