This video was shot this Saturday, November 3rd, in the Russian city of Perm, which is located near the Ural Mountains. It shows a silver Chevrolet Aveo (Sonic in US) randomly attacking some people and is quite puzzling.
The first explanation that popped into our heads is that the Aveo was hit from behind and rolled forward. But this is not the likely explanation, because it seems it’s accelerating from standstill. No, the car is moving under its own power.
Far more likely is that this is an automatic version of the Aveo. The owner probably has an aftermarket remote start device. Normally, this should have put the car into neutral before starting the engine, but there could have been a malfunction. You can even see the headlights flashing before the Aveo starts to move, indicating remote activation.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
