Recently, an incident involving a Mercedes EQE electric car, which burned down in a garage in Florida, has drawn attention to the safety of electric vehicles. The fire broke out less than a day after the owner parked the rented car in his garage. Fortunately, no one was hurt in this incident, but the damage was significant.
Jennifer Ruotolo, who was using the EQE replacement car while her own vehicle was in service, recounted the dramatic moments. "I was at work, around 8:30 my husband heard a hiss and a crack, and when he entered the garage, it was already full of smoke. The vehicle caught fire and exploded."
Mercedes, the manufacturer of the car, issued a statement informing that it takes the matter very seriously and is conducting an investigation to determine the causes of the incident. Meanwhile, the St. Johns County Fire Department is also investigating the causes of the fire.
All this shows how important the safety of electric cars is, especially when they are parked in home garages. With such situations in mind, the eWesta company is working on a new product.
eWesta, known for its innovative solutions in the field of safety, is completing work on a new product - eWesta Car. This is a security system dedicated to electric cars parked in home garages.
