China has announced the creation and rollout of a technology-driven risk management system to address what the industry refers to as a double loss of control in new-energy vehicles: thermal runaway and sudden incidents tied to loss of speed control. According to the regulator, the suite blends deep accident forensics, defect-identification tools, and a pairing of online alerts with offline diagnostics, all coordinated through a smart oversight cloud platform. The design reads as an attempt to stitch detection, analysis, and response into one loop—something the sector has struggled to do consistently.

On the investigative side, a dual-trace approach for probing thermal-runaway causes is said to tie causes to evidence more precisely than simplified threshold methods and basic scene inspections. The authority notes that these technologies have already been applied in 48 fire investigations and 30 cases of sudden loss of control, 78 incidents in total.

For defect confirmation, they apply a data-plus-evidence method: big-data pre-analysis is backed by engineering experiments on both software and hardware. The regulator claims this sped up fire-related work—with an efficiency gain cited at 214%—and helped build coherent evidentiary chains. It also points to a human–environment methodology for defects tied to sudden loss of control, alongside national standards covering fire-defect analysis and issues in regenerative braking functions.

Turning to real-world prevention, the system reportedly flagged in advance 103 vehicles at high risk of fire, while offline tools—such as leak-detection and visual-inspection solutions—aim to close gaps in battery safety checks. The platform has already integrated data from five automakers and is monitoring 710,000 vehicles, a footprint that, if it works as advertised, should tighten diagnostics, speed repairs, and sharpen emergency response.
