You mean arson? "While the cause of the fire is still being investigated as we speak, comments on social media indicated that it might have been triggered when the car came into contact with a package that contained highly-flammable chemicals which allegedly dropped from another vehicle in front of the Perodua Alza."
Your source from China Observer is definitely an anti china view as it's a Falun Gong affiliated channel. Furthermore, the content touches only on BYD vehicles in China. Nothing is mentioned about Tesla or other European EV cars. As someone pointed out, fire does break out in combustion engine cars also. Your comment is bias and misleading. Do a proper research and provide a relevant data before commenting.
See the next recent video. It's about Jaguar i-Pace fire in the USA. EV fires are fire, I don't discreminate about the car make or where it's made from
The videos are first hand from China. You can't call every other source out there fake when foreign media is not allowed to even report properly from inside China.
the problem china ev not just the battery but the whole car itself, There are a lot of reports about china ev having issues about reliable, corrosion and cheap electronic from outside Malaysia, I'm still waiting from Malaysia user about china ev.
Lithium ion is not the answer, solid-state batteries would be much more stable..likely be available 27/28..by then current line up of ev will be obsolete ..
Ok this time the title more correct, last one not all are BYD BEV, some of the early BYD hybrid car, which is equipped with NMC battery when they burn, they burn violently. Nowadays, most EV is equipped with LFP battery. LFP battery dont burn like NMC. With so many EV cars in China, the percentage of EV that cought fire compared to combustion cars is still very low. Most of China Hybrid vechicle that time comes with NMC Lithium battery compare to most like old toyota hybrid use nickel metal hydride battery. But now i see they ( including Toyota ) also moving to Lithium NMC battery... so beware of those hybird cars... they may catch fire with the 12 volt battery short circuit as many of those car place the 12volt battery next to the Lithium NMC battery
If you ask me, most of the time is the electirc circuit in the baterry management system that short circuit, that causes fire, not the battery that spontaneous caught fire. Remember the Proton X90 caught fire insident? If is poor design on proton part that allow easily combustible material near a high power cable that generate at lot heat that allow it get burn, in their recall they simply cut away the foam insulator. Same as these case in most electrical system in BEV that caught fire, which also can happen in ICE car with all the electrical cable and elctronic system in the car. As like combustible material once it caught fire it will burn. Just like a petrol tank, when it caught fire it will also burn and explode right? Same as EV battery. Just that NMC battery when they burn the burn very violent... but if it is LFP battery, it is more heat resistant and burn more slowly allow the occupants enough time to escape. There is no car in the market that is not combustible when there is fire. One more thing, China Observer is run by Vision Times, Vision Times, is a Falun Gong affiliated Chinese language weekly newspaper. It was founded in 2001 as a website, www.secretchina.com. In 2006, it began publishing weekly print versions in major U.S. cities and Australia. Since it is run by Falun Gong which is mainly anti China Propaganda organisation, i take whatever they publish in a pinch of salt.
😮😢 nothing unusual in accidents. There are thousand of people that died of highway accident. No matter how good the EV cars has been made, it not only BYD, it is tesla and any ev cars that can caught fire. Even gasoline combustion caught fire all over the world. I think you are bias against byd ev cars.😅
Watch my commentary in full context. This channel I posted Mercedes-Benz fire in Johor Malaysia, Tesla fire in Puchong, Selangor, and recent Jaguar i-Pace fire in USA
I've never seen one fuel petrol/diesel that spontaneous combust unless there is a wiring short circuit. But we do seem to see many electrical fuel cells self-combust
@@chestercheng75 many of those incidents were not from byd blade batteries. and they were old videos. amg ev also caught fire during charging recently and it was not a blade battery tech. battery tech can only get better without the suppression from big oil. vw and byd are set to build sodium ion battery gigafactories for mass production soon. sodium does not explode. there is also solid state batt tech which will be more stable and have higher capacity.
@@alsetalokin88just sell that one then i dont want high capacity lithium ion on my car no matter what the brand any lithium car is just time bomb for me
How many of those catching fire were powered by BYD LFP blade batteries? I don't really care about Li-ion batteries as everyone knows about the danger by now, hence the development of LFP for EVs.
phone on fires cars on fires even home can be on fire, fault can happen anytime surely a ev on fire is more big news because some need to make ev bad just like everything else in this world its not the fear what can be on fire its be ready for everything
Bro, EV fire big news because it takes much much longer time for firefighters to control them, not only that the chemical cocktail releases to the atmosphere is extremely toxic to the environment and bystander and 1st responders
Short Circuit? Overcharging? or simply User error? Also hybrid have more problem because air cooling and at worst, storing batteries inside cabin.
Toyota Prius Hybrid has been sold for over 20 years, go to SEA especially Thailand and Cambodia. It's all over there like the MyVi of Malaysia.
@@anohneemel3403 Yea Im talking about Toyota hybrid, statistically they are the one most likely to burn because all mentioned above.
@@yulusleonard985 That is bullshit, is it because youre a Burn Your Drive fan with countless videos of them burning online?
@@anohneemel3403 the data are from US bureau of transportation. Hybrid are far more likely to burn than ICE.
Good review chester..an eye opener on ev’s. I’m wait and see options before pursuing an ev car.
You and me both!
came over from your comment on John Cadogan's video, so glad i did . much love from the insane asylum formerly known as Australia
I'm trying to create awareness among make my fellow Malaysian
even brand new , new model alza was on fire.
You mean arson?
"While the cause of the fire is still being investigated as we speak, comments on social media indicated that it might have been triggered when the car came into contact with a package that contained highly-flammable chemicals which allegedly dropped from another vehicle in front of the Perodua Alza."
That one was arson la, there was a burning package.
Have you look at how many Internal Combustion engine caught fire in comparison to electric cars?
Yes. But fires not severe as EV. In the future this may change if they come up with a better mixture of different cocktail for the batteries

The EV car is still not safe to use yet.the technology still needs to improve. no matter any brand of car.tesla is facing same problem.
I agree with you on this. Likely I estimate another 10 years for Solid State Battery to be commercially "production ready"
the first EV on fire in malaysia is mercedes EQB, made in EU. i dont see why you dont asking malaysian beware of it
I did make the video about Mercedes-Benz EQB. ruclips.net/video/v9VpgvVzeO4/видео.htmlsi=OgFMQm9_KkYGPj9O

The man carry his baby out of car is blue plate which is ICE car. Green plate is for EV and hybrid.
ICE IS SAFER CHEAPER AND EASILY AVAILABLE
Maybe we are in the minority 😅
nope...gasoline/diesel engine will never die@@chestercheng75
never buy an EV, problem not solved but avoided 😅
Lithium ion is not the answer, solid-state batteries would be much more stable..likely be available 27/28..by then current line up of ev will be obsolete ..
I agree, but it is likely in another 5-10 years for commercial application
Still a pureblood
I won't park next to an ev. Just saying.
That’s what I dont like about EV cars in general. Too many uncertainties. Also, because petrol in Malaysia is too cheap to make EV desirable.
Cheap at this moment.Once PADU system starts to run,only certain people will enjoyed subsidy price
Not buying EV anytime soon. Dok basikal okies lah buat aper susah susah

Is it because of old BYD models burning at the 4 BYD dealership that's reported by in the video?

tesla on fire but i cant see you post thats
Looks like I owned you on this one.... Go check out my older videos. ruclips.net/video/Mw7rcO-r2YE/видео.htmlsi=dd_oR110h4cxVLU2
ICE also got self combustion before, it's actually more prevalent. Just that we are more used to it already. Even in Sg we got a few cases last year.
I've never seen one fuel petrol/diesel that spontaneous combust unless there is a wiring short circuit. But we do seem to see many electrical fuel cells self-combust
But combustion in flame hardly unless u illegally modified some wiring or fuel related than there is more likely
lol false as serpentza.

I don't really care about Li-ion batteries as everyone knows about the danger by now, hence the development of LFP for EVs.
