A yellow Ferrari caught fire while driving east on Beiheng Passage in Shanghai towards the Bund on June 29, destroying much of the car's rear half.
Shanghai Television reported that the Ferrari F8 Spider belonged to a man named Jiang, who had lent it to a friend. The accident occurred while a hired driver was returning the car.
After questioning the driver, Jiang discovered that the car had been driven in first gear in manual mode for the entire trip.
"This car has both manual and automatic modes. The driver likely didn't switch to automatic and drove in first gear at 50 to 60 kilometers per hour, causing the engine to overheat due to prolonged high RPM," Jiang explained.
He speculated that the initial cause of the accident was a burst water tank inside the car, leading to a coolant leak, and that no cooling measures were taken afterward.
The fire department stated that a report on the cause of the fire will be available in a month.
Jiang posted a video on Douyin saying, "My US$700,000 is gone in an instant." He mentioned that he bought the Ferrari in September 2022 for around US$700,000 but had insurance coverage for just US$280,000, which is insufficient to cover his loss.
According to Shanghai Television, the driver was from Anxun Driving Service. Jiang plans to sue the company.
A staff member at Anxun said, "We are aware of the incident, are following procedures, and will contact the owner soon."
