Fire crews have been called to a car fire on State Highway 1 on Auckland’s motorway.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand said two trucks were sent about 6.15pm and found the car well involved.

“Everyone was out of the vehicle when we arrived.

“We have since extinguished the fire and left the scene.”

In a video sent to the Herald, a car could be seen on the side of the highway with its front wheels ablaze, spewing orange flames.
