15 luxury cars parked in the parking lot of Vidyavihar’s Skyline Oasis Co-operative Housing Society were charred on Sunday morning, Mumbai Mirror reported. 

The area was enclosed with tarpaulin sheets which trapped heat within the space. Fire brigade officials believe the trapped heat led to one of the cars catching fire, which then spread to the others. BMW, Land Rover Discovery, Honda Accord, Toyota Innova, and a WagonR were among the cars that got destroyed. It is yet to be found which car caught fire first. 

B D Patil, Station Officer of Kurla Fire station, told Mirror, “It is a known fact that a stationary vehicle can catch fire if it is in a confined space. The leather seats, the fuel, etc are all combustible. The heat must have been trapped in the parking area for a long time. Then one of the cars must have caught fire, leading to a chain reaction.”

No injuries were reported.
