The image of the model S which is burning up in this accident is released on Twitter.


The accident occurred when I was running testing on the main road. According to the driver, a warning message was displayed after a "loud noise", and it was told that Tesla employees who were on board had to stop the car. As the four people on board got off, the car was wrapped in flames in less than one minute, and it seems that the car was burned down after 5 minutes.

In the model S, a fire accident which is thought to be caused by the installed lithium ion battery is occurring, but both occurred after a strong impact was applied to the battery, and as a measure Tesla was 2014 I installed an additional shield on the body of model S in the year.

In this case, it is thought that some kind of obstruction penetrated the shield and damaged the battery, or an accidental breakdown occurred in the driving system itself.
