cyrus9 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Probably LPG was installed on this particular car, substandard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussieroaming Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Everyone kitted out with PPE to fight the fire, which is good to see. I assume those yellow crocs are the fire retardant model. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post VincentRJ Posted November 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2022 Is it possibly a battery-operated car? Spontaneous combustion is a problem with electric Vehicles. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll find its human operated. If it were a battery fire from an EV, it would be nowhere near as feeble. Probably a rubbish apple phone charger.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely as previously stated a gas conversion badly installed. Looks like a Altis so not an EV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
