You are aware your car has an electrically charged chassis? In the States we bond one leg of of our power to ground. Touching a charged chassis really isn't an issue. You don't want to use your body to complete the electrical circuit though.

Before using your extingisher on an electrical fire, you want to remove the inigtion source. Powdered fire extinguisher are messy. Never my first choice when other options are present.
