The accident involving the collision and fire of the Huawei Wanjie M7 electric car has forced us to re-examine the safety of electric vehicles and think deeply about how to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
According to eyewitnesses at the scene, the shocking scene of the accident is still vivid in their minds. They described how the Wanjie M7 came at an astonishing speed, and the driver seemed to attempt to brake urgently, but everything seemed too late. In front of everyone's eyes, it crashed into the truck ahead that was driving according to regulations. The huge impact was deafening, the front of the electric car almost turned into a pile of scrap metal, severely deformed, with glass shards flying everywhere. Shortly afterward, wisps of smoke emerged from the engine compartment of the vehicle, quickly escalating into a raging fire. When rescue personnel arrived, the unfortunate Wanjie M7 was engulfed in flames, with only the wails emanating from the flames. Preliminary investigations and expert analyses indicate that battery damage of the electric car may be the main cause of the fire. Under high-speed impact, the battery pack may have suffered physical damage, triggering a thermal runaway reaction, which is one of the most common causes of fires in electric cars. In addition, the impact may have caused a short circuit between the battery and other components of the vehicle, increasing the risk of fire.
Huawei Wanjie Automobile Company expressed deep sorrow for this unfortunate traffic accident and great concern about it. Upon learning of the news, the company's leadership immediately responded and pledged to investigate the cause of the accident with full effort. To ensure that such incidents do not happen again, the company has decided to establish closer cooperation with the transportation department. In addition, to show our care
