Gigantic Audi SUV Replica From China Puts American Full-Size SUVs To Shame

The replica business is booming as more and more people are trying to gain attention on social media with all kinds of DIY projects. While we have seen plenty of regular-sized or smaller-than-usual replicas, someone decided to take the opposite direction, creating a massive SUV with a steel body reminiscent of an Audi.

A video of the unique vehicle – supposedly shot in China – appeared on Reddit, making us watch in disbelief. Judging from the grippy tires and the overall footprint, the model could be based on a leftover chassis from some sort of heavy-equipment machinery. We must note though that despite the impressive stance, the fake Audi appears to be slightly smaller compared to Rainbow Sheikh’s creations.

The steel body of the monster SUV is clearly trying to replicate the design of the previous generation Audi Q5 and Q7, featuring the signature grille, cutouts for the missing lighting units, and S-line intakes on the front and rear bumpers. It doesn’t have any windows, but there is a cutout for them and an equally large sunroof.

The open-air interior can only be accessed from the back since this Audi is not equipped with side doors. Surprisingly there is an electric tailgate and a retractable ladder allowing people to climb inside. While we didn’t get a proper view of the interior, things look pretty basic in there, so don’t expect anything fancy. Thankfully, the driver’s seat is mounted high enough so the average person can see outside from the humongous windscreen.

The video proves that this build is not a static model but a functional vehicle that moves and steers, giving the driver an amazing view of the road ahead. We don’t know if the owner plans on continuing the project by adding paint or extra features, but we would be interested to learn more about it.
