In the early hours of Wednesday, a significant fire erupted at a storage compound in Southampton docks, resulting in the destruction of over 30 Jaecoo electric vehicles. The blaze, which produced thick black smoke visible across the port, is estimated to have caused nearly £1 million in damages. Authorities reported that the 33 vehicles involved had been purchased by customers but were still awaiting delivery. The fire was accompanied by explosions, further complicating the response efforts at the scene.
