Recently, a concerned netizen observed a Tesla Model Y charging at night, noticing white mist emanating from the front wheel area. This sight naturally raised concerns. However, Tesla's official explanation sheds light on the matter: the appearance of white mist is not an indication of impending fire, but rather a consequence of the battery heating process during charging. As the battery warms, the heat pump system engages its heat dissipation mechanism, expelling heat from the vehicle via the air conditioning components. Simultaneously, the increased temperature of components like the water tank causes condensed water to evaporate, forming water vapor. In cold ambient air, this water vapor condenses into visible white smoke. This is a perfectly normal physical phenomenon that poses no threat to the vehicle's operation or safety.
