The car is a Dongfeng M-Hero 917. It's Chinese.

Oh no! We're not even the #1 at making gun-cars?

Deh terk er jerbs!

I see China is on board with the monitors that look like they were glued to the dashboard and not actually part of it asthetic. I like that both driver and passenger get a neat throttle control. What does it do?

twin throttle controls are usually for different engines; it's not one set for the pilot flying and another for the pilot monitoring.

maybe this vehicle has two engines to allow its owner to really gun it?

[-] SoGrumpy@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

I see what you did there.

[-] bstix@feddit.dk 3 points 1 year ago

It actually has four engines. One for each wheel.

Oh I bet they touch it sometimes.

The left one is the usual PRND gear stick. The right one changes between 6 different off-road modes (snow, mud, sand, rock, water, auto).

And apparently it's amazing. I'm sure it has lots of spyware.

Gotta appease the American buyers

American designed, not necessarily American made.

woah i have a phobia of penises with teeth

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 21 points 1 year ago

Which is funny because that's a GLOCK, which is an Austrian pistol.

[-] MorrisonMotel6@lemm.ee 26 points 1 year ago

That is absolutely, 100% not a Glock

It's even funnier that it's a Chinese vehicle.

Yep. I can see that too.

Missed opportunity to make the door opener a trigger.

Toyotas and subarus are American made along with a variety of other brands.

Dongfeng M-Hero 917

Guess where it's not made

"No, it's not."

"No...no, it's not... But you can imagine what it would be like if it was, right?"

[-] Waldowal@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

That's one way to ensure you get shot by the police.

[-] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 year ago

The CCP police will at least torture you to confirm party loyalty before killing you rather than summarily executing you on the spot.

[-] Jilanico@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Batman-proof car

[-] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

RoboCop gonna want his piece back.

[-] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yup. Got some more dicks that need a shootin’.

[-] Nicoleism101@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

this fits my brain on the roads lately. It’s not only American thing to drive like absolutely crazy homicidal bullet

However actual buyers may not catch the layers of irony and dark humour
