A fire broke out inside a moving Lamborghini car on Mumbai’s coastal highway on Wednesday night, authorities said. No injuries were reported in the incident. The fire broke out around 10:20 p.m. and a fire engine was dispatched to the scene.
A fire official said the fire was extinguished in 45 minutes. Details about the number of occupants in the orange luxury car and the cause of the fire were not immediately available.
A video shared by Gautam Singhania, chairman and CEO of Raymond Group, showed the car’s cabin on fire and a man trying to put it out. Singhania, who is also a car enthusiast, expressed concern over the company’s safety standards.
He tweeted: “Discovered by me: A Lamborghini engulfed in flames on Coastal Road, Mumbai. Incidents like this raise serious concerns about Lamborghini’s reliability and safety standards. For the price and reputation, one expects uncompromising quality, no potential dangers”.
One user commented that he also saw the fire and that the car was boiling 45 minutes after firefighters put out the fire. Another user blamed road repairs and said most people who buy exorbitant cars cannot maintain them as per the requirement.
“Such incidents may be rare but very dangerous. Customer trust takes a beating. Car manufacturers should ensure uncompromising quality including safety aspects from their design stage,” said another user .
Singhania had also earlier tweeted about a Lamborghini being towed due to total electrical failure. He shared a picture of the towed car and asked: “Are these cars reliable?”
