AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/13 Report--

Not long ago, there was a lot of social concern about the spontaneous combustion of a Yundu new energy vehicle in Guangxi, but only a few days later, a video of the spontaneous combustion of a new energy vehicle was widely circulated on the Internet.

The video of the spontaneous combustion of an electric car circulated on the Internet shows that an Euler R1 spontaneous combustion occurred. According to the video, the accident vehicle caught fire when it was parked in a public DC fast charging station, but it was impossible to determine whether the vehicle was charging at that time.

As the video at the scene of the fire is relatively short, the information provided is limited. But it can be determined that the vehicle was in the public charging station at the time, while the right side of the fire vehicle, from the rear outline of the car seems to be parked an Euler iQ.

Some netizens speculated that the vehicle spontaneous combustion occurred during the fast charging process, but the authorities have not yet responded to this claim.

Euler R1, a new energy product owned by the Great Wall, went on sale in December 2018. So far, it has sold an average of about 3000 units a month, with a total sales of 18081 vehicles in the first half of this year.

In addition, on August 10th, the pure electric SUV π 3 of a Yundu new energy vehicle caught fire in the streets of Nanning, Guangxi, and the vehicle was almost destroyed because no emergency measures were taken to extinguish it. The next day, Yundu New Energy official issued a statement on the incident, saying that it would actively investigate the cause of the accident and carry out follow-up work.

Last weekend, a Russian Tesla Model 3 collided with a truck, then caught fire and exploded. It is understood that the car was turning on self-driving assistance at the time of the accident and crashed into the rear of the truck at 100km/h speed, injuring the Model 3 driver and his two children.

Due to a number of new energy spontaneous combustion incidents occurred in a short period of time, many netizens have responded one after another.

With the safety problem of "spontaneous combustion" of new energy vehicles, it has become a hot topic of social concern at present. And the vehicle brands with departure problems are different, so is the incident of "spontaneous combustion" an individual incident of electric vehicles or a common malpractice of new energy vehicles?
