A fire suppression system for a vehicle includes a housing, multiple battery cells positioned within the housing, an off-gas detector, and a controller. The off-gas detector is provided within the housing and is configured to detect a presence of off-gas in the housing. The controller is configured to receive signals from the off-gas detector indicating whether off-gas is detected in the housing, and activate a fire suppression apparatus to provide fire suppressant agent to any of an exterior or interior of the housing in response to detecting off-gas in the housing. |
