Lithium batteries don't really 'explode'. There's no detonation. There's plenty of videos on YouTube where intentionally punctured or overcharged cells 'burst' and burn very fiercely. The fire can spread rapidly, but takes time to spread between cells in a pack.
I wouldn't expect a battery fire to cause a blast/shockwave that can be felt from a distance, simply because battery packs are made up from large numbers of small cells that would burst individually as the fire spreads.
