18 January 2026

Electric Eco car on fire problem burn damage hybrid ev byd etron tesla problem in battery charger

Sorry, EV fans, the title with many keywords works.

It is appeared in my YouTube feed again.

Uploaded 3 July 2020.

That channel is a fuel-car business. No wonder why he upload this viral video.

This is why I, my dad, my mom, and we, keep using fuel cars forever or until we died. EV sucks. EV is unsafe. EV short circuit. EV caught fire. Bla bla bla.

Not in our lifetime for sure to make the roads ALL of EV sh1t.

The day is September 3, 2112.

Doraemon himself does not caught fire nor explode. So does his batteries.

h0ngcom's comment:

The finalist is a joke for pro-Chinese-BEV people for sure. (Seal 6 DM-i is plugin hybrid, not pure EV.)

There are suspicions that this is maybe a marketing ploy, as NONE OF THE MANY Chinese cars on the list made it to the finalist except for one.

(h0ngcom put the bold text on them. The Mazda 6e/EZ-6 is also a ChangAn Deepal-based, but the Japanese brand makes it really acceptable in the social, however, it did not win a finalist rank too.)

BYD spends a lot on marketing and advertising in various ways, which is disliked by eViking, a YouTuber with marketing background (and he also pro-Xpeng and pro-Zeekr/Geely).

As a BYD fan, h0ngcom agrees that BYD sponsors too many events and having too many ads to the point of being annoying me and some people, even if its intention is likely to make itself a normal and common thing/brand like Toyota. (Toyota in Thailand does many ads too, but Toyota is really a normal thing/brand, so it's not annoying much, compared with not-normal BYD thing/brand.)

Many Hyundai and Kia cars are in the finalist, similar to previous years.
