The official cause of the fire hasn't been announced yet, but the blaze pattern reportedly is similar to what is seen in a golf cart fire. The fire investigators in the area see numerous golf cart fires and are familiar with the signs. The Karma has lithium-ion battery packs, which is a technology known to overheat from damage or defect leading to possible fire.
