Not nearly as bad as BYD, where BYD vehicles experienced over 12400 fires in China in 2023, with 1300 of them being in their EV only models (Autocar, UK 2024). Granted, most are accident fires, but still beats out any manufacturer, including Tesla, by several orders of magnitude.
Perhaps we can all recall as we read in horror about the California man who drove his family down that cliff in 2021 in his Tesla Model 3. They dropped over 200 ft and damaged the car beyond recognition, and the family? They walked away from it with only minor injuries. We just don't hear about success stories like these from BYD. Instead, we read about shoddy workmanship, cheap interior trim pieces, body electronics that fail after a couple months, and paint that fades at the time the lease expires. That's BYDs story: delivering an unparalleled and unprecedented level of cheapness and junkiness never before seen since the introduction of the Yugo sedan in 1984.
