"An electric car exploded into a massive fire ball while sitting on the driveway of a family home, which also caught fire, according to reports.
"Emergency fire services were called to a home in Bromborough, Wirral, UK, at around 10 pm after receiving reports that a car was on fire.
"The blaze from the electric car was so big the family’s home also caught fire.
"According to a report from The Liverpool Echo, the fire blackened the two-story family home.
"A man told the outlet that after speaking to the owners of the electric car, they said they believed the blaze was caused by a “malfunctioning electric car battery.”
“ 'I was in bed and heard this popping noise. It sounded like fireworks going off,” the man said.
“ 'I went outside with my mum, and there were bright lights with a car up in flames over the road,” he continued.
“ 'The owner was in the house when it happened but got out,” the man said.
“ 'She told me this morning that the car was only a month old with a thousand miles on the clock and the car battery malfunctioned,” he noted." . . .
