Recently, BAIC New Energy responded to a video of a BAIC new energy vehicle exploding after smoking in a charging shed.
At about 11: 00 a.m. on August 20, a new energy vehicle parked in a charging shed in Sanming, Fujian Province, smoked. After the fire brigade rushed to the scene, the vehicle was cooled by a water gun. In the process, the vehicle suddenly exploded, but fortunately, there were no casualties.
According to a video posted online, the smoking model in the charging shed is BAIC's new energy ex. at first, there was only thick smoke around the vehicle, and there was no open fire, and the staff of the charging station arrived to evacuate the surrounding people. It can also be seen from the video that there are other models parked around the vehicle when it is smoking, and all the surrounding vehicles have been removed before the deflagration.
When the firefighters arrived at the scene, the vehicle began to burst out. Firefighters then retreated to the side of the road to cool the vehicle with a water cannon. In the process, the vehicle exploded and body fragments were scattered everywhere under a strong impact.
As the charging port of BAIC's new energy exe system is located at the sign of the grille in front of the vehicle, and the front of the vehicle is parked in the video, it is impossible to determine whether it is in a charging state, but according to local media reports, the car is in a charging state.
After the vehicle deflagration was extinguished by firefighters, it could be seen that the car body was seriously damaged, the rear door was blown off, the whole body glass was broken, the outer door panel of the vehicle was also blown up, and it also blew through the roof of the charging shed.
It is worth mentioning that on the same day, in addition to BAIC New Energy, a video of a Luck smoking in Hangzhou also attracted attention. According to a video uploaded by netizens, a Lecker 01 PHEV model was smoking in an underground garage, all the vehicles around the smoked Linke were removed, and firefighters arrived in time to spray water to cool the vehicle. It is worth noting that although there was a lot of smoke around the vehicle, there was no open fire.
In addition, according to media reports, a Zhongtai E200 caught fire on the Shanghai S20 Outer Ring Highway today. judging from the pictures posted on the Internet, it was initially judged that the site of the fire was the position in the front cabin. Due to the excessive fire, the Zhongtai E200 was finally completely destroyed, leaving only an empty shell. So far, it is not clear whether there are any casualties.
Domestic sales of new energy vehicles rose 15.6 per cent to 100000 units in July 2020, while cumulative sales fell 31.7 per cent to 496000 units from January to July, according to the China Automobile Association. After 12 consecutive months of year-on-year decline in sales, the new energy vehicle market has finally ushered in a long-lost growth.
However, in the case of a number of car companies bottoming out and rebounding, BAIC New Energy has dropped nearly 80%. According to the latest BAIC Blue Valley data, BAIC's new energy sales fell 84 per cent to 2009 vehicles in July 2020, and cumulative sales fell 78.49 per cent to 16709 vehicles from January to July, the seventh consecutive month of year-on-year decline.
According to the CAS data, BAIC's new energy EU series has already been in the top five, with cumulative sales falling by 76.3% to 13722 vehicles from January to July. In fact, under the multiple pressures of the decline of new energy subsidies and the auto market last year, the output of BAIC's new energy is obviously weak, and the ex-series models have a deflagration incident, or BAIC's new energy, which is not optimistic about the market performance, has made things worse.
In view of the incident that BAIC's new energy vehicles first smoke and then explode, some media have sought confirmation from BAIC New Energy. BAIC New Energy responded to Shell Finance, "according to the video and preliminary investigation at the scene, there was no open fire or continuous smoke during the accident and handling, which was not in line with the law of battery overheating." At the same time, based on the cleanliness of the inner and outer surfaces of the car, no carbonization stains caused by battery overheating were found.
In addition, BAIC New Energy responded to Sina Automobile. "from the information obtained, the existence of flammable and explosive goods on the vehicle cannot be ruled out. The company's special team is currently cooperating with the car owner and the fire department to investigate the cause of the accident." The company will conduct further detailed investigation and analysis of the accident. "
Under the background of the national development of new energy vehicles, frequent incidents of smoke, fire and spontaneous combustion have aroused consumers' concerns about the product quality and vehicle safety of new energy vehicles. I hope that car companies will launch an investigation as soon as possible and publish the relevant investigation results.
