While some may be alarmed by this Neta V catching fire, the company is not, here is why
On 9 November 2024, Neta issued an official statement addressing an incident involving one of its vehicles, the Neta V, on a highway. The company reassured the public and its customers that all three occupants of the vehicle, one driver and two passengers, are safe and unharmed.
According to the statement, the driver confirmed that no injuries were sustained during the incident, and the passengers were not affected. The incident occurred when the Neta V struck a fragment of a lorry tyre on the road. The vehicle was forced to pull over to the roadside, but unfortunately, it then caught fire.
Moreover, while the fire caused significant damage to the vehicle, Neta emphasised that initial investigations suggest there is no evidence of any defect or malfunction within the vehicle’s design or systems. The company believes that the incident was caused by external road hazards, rather than any internal failure.
Following the fire, the authorities were alerted, and a police report was filed. Neta is actively cooperating with law enforcement and emergency responders as part of an ongoing investigation into the precise cause of the fire. The company has deployed its technical team to work alongside the relevant authorities to assess the situation thoroughly and ensure that all factors contributing to the fire are identified and understood.
At this stage, the company has also emphasised that the incident appears to be an isolated one and is not indicative of a broader safety issue with the Neta V model or other vehicles in the company’s lineup. The company assured the public that it remains committed to the safety of its customers and the general public.
On top of that, as part of its ongoing investigation, Neta has promised to provide updates as more information becomes available. The brand also expressed its appreciation for the quick and efficient response from the local authorities and first responders, acknowledging their role in managing the incident and minimising potential risks.
The company reiterated that it places the safety of its customers as its top priority and remains dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of safety across its product line. In conclusion, while the incident was alarming, Neta is determined to fully understand the causes and take any necessary actions to prevent similar occurrences.
As more details emerge from the investigation, Neta will continue to provide updates to ensure transparency and maintain customer trust.
