    People have been having a lot of fun with Teslas lately.

    The cars that were set to revolutionise electric transport have become the plaything of idiots who think it’s okay to sleep on the backseat while the car is on autopilot, for a start.

    Cue the Darwin Awards getting in touch.

    Stupid drivers might not be the worst of Tesla’s problems, though.

    A video doing the rounds shows what appears to be a white Tesla Model S exploding in a Shanghai parking lot, reports Quartz.

    Check it out:

    Tesla is sending a team of investigators to look into why and how this happened.

    “We immediately sent a team on site and we’re supporting local authorities to establish the facts. From what we know now, no one was harmed,” a Tesla China spokesperson said in an email statement.

    The bad news for Tesla is that this isn’t the first of their cars to explode.

    Last week, a parked Tesla in the US caught fire after being transported to a garage in Pennsylvania to examine its possible role in a fire that broke out in a garage attached to its owner’s home. Tesla has also said it is looking at that fire.

    The video has emerged just as Tesla determined to increase investment in China, the company’s biggest overseas market.

    Exploding cars won’t be doing them any favours.
