Another electric scooter catches fire in India, users furious
After Ola Electric and Okinawa e-scooters caught fire and raised alarms in government circles, another electric scooter of Hyderabad-based Pure EV has reportedly caught fire in Tamil Nadu.
The EV fire incident, the third in a row, occurred near Mathura Toll Plaza in the Manjampakkam area near North Chennai.
The 26-seconds long video of the fire, posted by ET Auto, shows heavy smoke billowing out of a red-coloured Pure EV electric scooter, leaving the rider and the bystanders furious.
The company said it is investigating the incident.
Last week, a blue-coloured Ola S1 Pro e-scooter that was parked on the side of a road in Pune was spotted catching fire.
