Core Viewpoint - Recent incidents of electric vehicle fires have heightened public concerns regarding the safety of new energy vehicles, despite data indicating that the fire probability is comparable to traditional fuel vehicles [1][2] Group 1: Current Safety Concerns - The main scenarios for electric vehicle fire incidents include charging self-ignition, driving self-ignition, collision self-ignition, immersion self-ignition, and parking self-ignition [2] - The root cause of these safety incidents is often thermal runaway of the power battery, which can occur due to battery membrane rupture from collisions or overcharging/over-discharging [2] Group 2: Quality and Standards - The current national standards for power batteries in new energy vehicles are outdated, having last been updated in 2020, and do not adequately address safety under extreme conditions [3] - The revised mandatory standard GB38031-2025 introduces new testing requirements, including bottom impact tests and safety assessments after fast charging, which will compel companies to enhance their technology and safety measures [3] Group 3: Regulatory and Training Aspects - Safety in the new energy vehicle sector also involves regulatory oversight during the usage phase, requiring government agencies to implement regular safety checks on vehicles already on the market [4] - There is a need for public education on safety and professional training for maintenance personnel to ensure comprehensive safety management in the industry [4]
