This is the terrifying moment a car burst into flames after the wrong fuel was pumped into its tank at a petrol station in Argentina.

CCTV footage shows the Volkswagen Passat catching fire while being refuelled in Entre Rios on July 22.

A pump attendant recoiled when an explosion erupted near the vehicle's fuel tank, engulfing the car in flames.

Panicked drivers abandoned their vehicles and fled to safety as quick-thinking staff grabbed fire extinguishers and battled the blaze.

No one was injured in the chaos.

Local media reported the fire broke out while workers were trying to extract diesel that had mistakenly been pumped into the vehicle.

Firefighters and police were later called to the scene to investigate.
