The G-Wiz electric car was being recalled today after one burst into flames.
Keith Johnston, GoinGreen managing director, said the fire was sparked by a faulty heat-sensitive cut-out switch. "Even though it was a single incident, it was decided as a precautionary measure to launch a recall."

Page 52 of this weeks Auto express - "truly petrifying" - "imagine sitting in a wheelie bin with an electric motor". Only the writers opinion but at £6,000 I can think of better cars.

no charge to the customer then

No, they thought they'd let him off as he was getting a bit heated.
|
If there had been a charge he could have paid with his 'plastic'!
|
|
Why "green", doesnt most of the charge come from gas or coal fueled power stations?
|
|
Sounds like they are trying to turn a negative into a positive.
|
and they keep plugging this model
|
Please put a socket in it
