#New Car Headline#On November 15, a Seal owner posted a video of the vehicle catching fire with the addition that it caught fire just two months after delivery?? Is it an ulterior motive or a design flaw? Welcome to discuss. For a time, the first burning of BYD's seal triggered a fierce discussion among netizens.
As you can see from the picture, the fire vehicle stopped on the side of the main road and ignited a raging fire. The location of the fire is concentrated in the middle rear of the body, the front and chassis are relatively intact, suspected of a new car, which has not yet been licensed.
It is understood that the seal fire accident occurred in Nanyang City, Henan Province, and did not cause more vehicles and personnel to participate, but the cause of the fire, the local fire rescue brigade staff said, is temporarily inconvenient to disclose. Subsequently, some media verified the matter with BYD, and BYD replied that the specific cause was under investigation.
BYD Seal is a new model of Ocean Network, positioned as a medium-sized pure electric vehicle, launched on July 29 this year, known as BYD e platform 3.0 technology, not only based on the concept of marine aesthetics, young and sporty, equipped with strong power performance, 100 km acceleration for 3 seconds. In addition, BYD's blade batteries have always been known as safety.
Spontaneous combustion of electric vehicles is not uncommon, but basically fire accidents will be attributed to external causes rather than quality problems, with the explosive growth of new energy vehicle market sales, the stock base is huge, the probability of spontaneous combustion also increases, and the shadow of BYD can often be seen under the label of spontaneous combustion.
But according to incomplete statistics, the accident should be the first fire accident of BYD seals. Some media said that the BYD seal is a new model, and the cause of the fire is not battery aging; Combined with local temperature conditions and fire time points, it can also be ruled out that the outside temperature is too high; There was no obvious collision at the scene of the accident, not caused by the collision. As for online BYD sales, it is claimed that the accident was caused by the owner pouring gasoline on the car and burning it, but it has not been confirmed. The specific cause of the vehicle fire needs to be further confirmed by BYD.
BYD Seal has attracted much attention since its launch, and its sales performance is also very good. According to the latest data from the Passenger Union, BYD's retail sales of new energy vehicles in October were 205,800 units, a year-on-year increase of 159.4%, of which seal sales were 11,267 units, an increase of 50.8% month-on-month. However, while sales are growing, quality cannot be ignored either. As for the cause of the fire, we should also carefully investigate to respond to the speculation and doubts of netizens.
