An electric concept car went up in flames during the Guangzhou Auto Show in China.
Images and videos of the incident have been circulating on social media since the Chinese electric vehicle parked at the show’s IAT Automotive display caught on fire on Dec. 29, 2022.
It is not clear whether the fire started from the concept car itself or if the fire had spread from another source.
However, the fire was extinguished and the display was quickly repaired. No one was injured in the incident, according to reports.
