Wow, an electric vehicle suddenly catches fire without warning

A Chinese electric car caught fire in the middle of traffic, without warning. The video shows flames shooting out almost instantaneously from beneath the vehicle, leaving very little time to react. Unlike combustion engines, where a leak or overheating sometimes takes a few seconds, in this case the fire starts at full intensity. Passengers manage to get out quickly, but you can imagine the stress if a child is strapped into a seat in the back. The vehicle is engulfed in flames in no time at all.
