Yes, Model X (at 192) is second highest in its class.
It's also better than any passenger car in top 10 (lowest at 204) and better than any pickup truck in top 10 (lowest at 205).
So if we care about fire safety, we should replace every passenger car and pick up with the "terrible" Model X.
Also worth noting that, to my knowledge, there wasn't a single non-crash fire in Model 3, which points to a dramatic improvement in battery safety from Model S/X to Model 3, even from the baseline of "much better than most passenger cars and pick up trucks".

Before the HLDI report came out, were you aware that there were 20 insurance claims for non-crash fires between the Model S and the Model X over 2 years of time?
Not everybody goes running to social media when their car catches on fire. Perhaps we should wait until the next HLDI report comes out for 2019-2020 before we make presumptions about how often the Model 3 catches fire.
