Recently, a fierce Mercedes-Benz car fire occurred right at the charging station of the German luxury car manufacturer in Jalan Skudai area (Malaysia).

From observations, it seems that the burnt car is the 2022 (or 2023) Mercedes-Benz EQB electric car with a starting price of $65,000 (1.58 billion VND).

According to the initial investigation, this EQB electric car was being charged at the station when it suddenly exploded.

It took about an hour for the authorities to completely control the fire.

Fortunately, there were no casualties, but the Mercedes-Benz car was almost completely destroyed. The Mercedes store and the charging station were also damaged about 10-20%.

Currently, the police are still investigating the cause of the fire. Many sources say that the fire may not be caused by the electric car battery but by some other factors.

The Mercedes-Benz EQB is a new all-electric SUV launched in Vietnam in September 2023. The car is imported from the US with a price of 2.289 billion VND.
