According to initial reports from Setopati, this occurred due to wire short as white smoke was seen rising from beneath the vehicle, where the battery pack is located.

However, we contacted the company officials and they have stated that the incident was caused by a defect in some parts and is not necessarily related to the vehicle’s battery.

A fire truck was quickly dispatched to the scene, and the situation has since been brought under control, according to Sitapaila police.
