This ‘Chinese car’ is brilliant and nauseating at the same time

Ali

USB cables, powerbanks, fake nails, watch bands. For cheap junk products, AliExpress is the place to be. Cars can be found there, too. Back in 2021, we wrote about the world’s cheapest car, which of course was for sale on the Chinese web store. It turned out to be quite a fine thing, by the way. A panoramic roof, rearview camera (with sound warning), heater, digital instrument cluster and a stereo system with MP3 player and USB, it was all there.

Happy Car

With the creation we’ve now come across on AliExpress, we wouldn’t go on public roads anytime soon. Indeed, we would rather not get in at all. The two-wheeler – with the catchy name Amusement Park Rides New 360 Degree Electric Leswing Happy Car Double Players 360 Rolling Cars, but better known as the Happy Car – reminds us mostly of a carnival ride gone wild.

Nauseating

The “thing” has two wheels at its ends with seats between them for a “driver” and a passenger. You can also describe it as two monowheels, connected together. Occupants can strap themselves in with a four-point harness. Sounds safe right, a four-point harness? Well, you do need those. Just touching the gas pedal with your little toe will literally send you flying over the top. If you have a weak stomach, you probably already get nauseous when you see the device being driven in the video below. Interested? For $1,000, you can score one from the well-known online store.
