Fast Technology reported on January 14 that in Zhuhai, Guangdong, a video released by netizens showed that a Tesla Model Y caught fire in the middle of the road.
In the video, the Tesla only smoked at first and no open fire emerged.
It was suspected that a person dressed in sanitation clothes was rescuing the contents of the Tesla from the trunk.
However, because the electric vehicle caught fire relatively quickly, it didn’t take long for the entire vehicle to be swallowed up by the fire.
By the time the traffic police were on the spot, the vehicle was burned and scrapped.
At present, Tesla officials and car owners have not made relevant explanations on this matter, and the follow-up will be subject to official news.
In fact, as long as electric vehicles with batteries are equipped, the risk of spontaneous combustion cannot be completely eliminated.
However, Tesla is very confident in the spontaneous combustion of its own models.
Last month, Tesla Vice President Tao Lin posted on Weibo saying that the Model 3 has become a double five-star model with the “China Electric Vehicle Fire Safety Index” and “Vehicle Fire Safety Certification.
” In the past six years, Tesla has never been recalled worldwide due to a “fire risk”.
She also emphasized that combined with Tesla’s vehicle safety report and data released by the National Fire Protection Association, Tesla’s probability of catching fire is only 1/8 of that of a fuel vehicle, which also covers building fires and man-made arson.
