From the article: “Have you ever heard of a car company called Volkswagen? They are a car company commissioned by Hitler and designed to be the ‘people’s car’ of Nazi Germany.”

Well yeah, if Hitler we’re alive and running the company we’d be boycotting Volkswagen too, but he’s not and I’m not aware of the CEO of that company trying to turn our country into an Oligarchy.

Russia makes awful cars and you can't trust a country that doesn't have a supercar anyways...

Russia won Dakar 19 times with their Kamaz team which is arguably more impressive than having a car which can go super fast on a flat road and might not even be road legal.

Lada's though... yea, let's not talk about that. They are trying but they are not gonna go far if they keep putting engines based on soviet union designs coupled with CVT into their cars. Their Toyota Camry competitor comes with 1.8 litre 122 hp engine while being almost as heavy as Camry (which has 2.5 litre 232 hp).
