It's right on a main highway. Someone would have witnessed it explode... Not to mention the OTHER PEOPLE involved in the accident.
There would be more than an engine block flying out. There would be parts and shrapnel EVERYWHERE in a large radius, especially if someone claimed to hear an explosion that far away.
Also, an explosion would be hot, but it's the pressure wave that does the most damage. The blast itself would be brief, and wouldn't create molten metal. That would take CONTINUOUS heat.
Any forensic investigation, even from the most inexperienced investigators, would EASILY and IMMEDIATELY reveal traces of explosive material. Not just in/on the vehicle but EVERYWHERE in the immediate area. A simple physical examination of the vehicle would also be able to determine if explosives were used or not. There would be no way to cover it up, either. Even civilians could come to the scene around the vehicle and take samples to be tested for explosive residue. They wouldn't need access to the actual vehicle.
Also, even if they planned to blow up the vehicle, they would have been more careful about how they did it. They would have waited until the vehicle was in a more secluded location, or possibly at night. It would be silly to do it on a busy highway, in broad daylight, with people and cameras to witness the incident.
