Weird name for a car noh? In one of my old motormags there was an old 1970s for sale and I never got around pronouncing the name until the name plate was bought back to life again.

yeah I think it was also named after a wind like golf jetta and passat ?

Ok let's do something different as we head into the weekend! This is gonna be easy but still let's try something fun.

~~Watch this car chase and correctly identify AT LEAST 10 vehicles OTHER Than the two cars involved in the chase.~~

~~The 10 vehicles should contain 2 non-Japanese Cars. Person who names most number of cars wins~~

Edit :

My previous challenge was a bit too tedious : Just Identify the two non Japanese cars that can be seen in this car chase.

Man thats a car chase. Wonder why the Yakuza or whoever uses an Old President and the MC's use an old crown in a day and age you see a lot of electrics and hybrids and supercars and much newer version of those cars.

Edit: they got skills to do that kind of stunt of pushing two massive barges but of course a bit of dramatization with the way the cars accelerate suddenly and all (better than those EVs I must say)

It's a sci-fi based on a manga: it's a version of Japan where all electronics are fried so only the old Carbs and Diesels work. If you notice all the modern EV/hybrid/EFI cars are stationary. The driving is of course overly dramatized.

Over to you. It's the SAIC Almaz/Wuling Almaz by Micro.

Almaz is a Russian Space Station name, also a fighting unit in the Russian army as well a class of military ship. Wonder why the Chinese named is as such

A concept car / motor vehicle is against the rules. But since we are going with vehicles in the local use could be alright. Now people dont come and put out trivia on the other local 3 wheelers which are yet to be produced etc
