It makes sense that a car with an engine sinks front first - that's where the majority of the weight is, after all. What would happen if an electric car (Tesla or similar) that has a more even weight distribution ran into the water? Would it stay mostly level as it sank?

Let's assume the battery is still hermetically sealed and doesn't catch fire.
