An electric vehicle has gone up in flames in one of Auckland’s richest suburbs overnight, damaging another vehicle and the outside of a home.

A Fire and Emergency spokesperson said they were called to Sunny Brae Cres in Westmere at 3am.

A crew each from Grey Lynn and Auckland City arrived to find two vehicles – one an EV – in flames near a two-storey house.

Photos from the scene show the fire caused damage to the exterior of the home before the blaze was extinguished by 3.35am.

There were no injuries and a fire investigator has been called to the scene.
