A fire safety risk has been identified in more than 200 new electric vehicles, with Audi recalling the model for urgent repairs.
The federal transport department issued a recall for the Audi e-Tron GT vehicles on Thursday due to a safety issue involving their battery housing.
The safety alert comes one week after Tesla experienced one of its biggest electric car recalls to date, involving more than 4300 vehicles, though the issue was addressed with a software update.
