- Recently, many Chinese bloggers have been talking about these so-called "zombie cars". These cars can be seen on the roads around cities like Guangzhou and Shenzhen or in remote wilderness areas, where they have been parked for a long time. Some are covered in dust, some are draped with tarps, and some have grass growing around them up to two meters high. These cars come in various shapes and sizes. Some still look very new but have been parked by their owners in the wilderness for a long time.

the amount of money Chinese people waste trying to impress people is astounding
Sounds ripe for the picking
I'm surprised nobody comes around to steal the unguarded vehicles as parts for chop shops. In NYC all of those vehicles would go missing.
@@ILovePancakes24Maybe they do, but the supply may be so great there is simply no market for so much.
They are peasants at heart. They never had the chance to own anything and suddenly they could, so it went up to their heads.
@@ILovePancakes24 It's because the punishment for crimes are much more severe in China. Plus people actually are taught from an early age to not steal because it's wrong. Unlike the U.S, "It's only wrong if you are caught". Plus the punishment is just a slap on the wrist.
I can imagine all the bad drivers that only drove twice a year on the road during Lunar new year 😅
And Chinese!
Yeah heard they drive like teenagers that recently took the driver license. There is no culture of driving cars in China, those that buy cars are the first ever in the family to ever own a car.
Yep cars are fairly new to the average Chinese citizen. Hence they drive with little experience.

"Five years ago, Congress passed a law, a law which set off 1,500 million dollars, to train Western journalists in writing negative stories about China. That's done by the state agency or media in the United States. Now, those of us who go to China, or Westerners who live here and see the complexities and the broadness and try to understand China on Chinese premises see it differently. But that is where they are." -- Jan Oberg ( Director of the Transnational Foundation for Peace and Future Research)
$1.5 billion was used by this US government, to train journalists how to write negative stories about China.
$300 million a year, just being spent of the free press to teach them. All right, how to be biased against China?
Now, it seems unbelievable, Imagine if China was doing that, all right, You in the US would say, see, this is an attack on the freedom of the press of information!

@@fred7710 I think the reason we don’t sell stuff like that is because it’s worth more to you than the money you would get. Once the price goes up enough or your need for money goes up enough the sell might happen. Or if you die of course.
A friend spent 5 years working in china. He would come back to the states, buy a junker (Like an 82 Firebird with a base motor) at the impound auction, take it back to china and sell it for ten times what he paid for it. The chinese he sold it to wanted an American car as a status symbol.
Interesting. When I wanted to buy a classic Citroen CX in Beijing, I was told that I wouldn’t be able to drive it legally since it’s over 25 years old. Such a waste.
@@roxythefoxsayfurismurderan3187 I would not put it beyond Chinese to just drive it in a circle on his property, or somewhere in a village where he knows the police. With guanxi rules mean nothing in China.
Sounds like total B.S. This would only and barely be profitable but with only extremely luxury cars.
@@Follow.Jesus.Christ it is classic american car while american classic car have history chinese doesn't care about that, so people just buy old american car the one that not rare then repair it then sold as american classic with their price tag, scummy sure but the buyer also doesn't care about the car history just looks and the badge
Yeah with a 150% import tax
At this point it is just a stupid tax. If you are stupid enough to buy a car just to show off then you deserve to lose money.
I LOLed at the man who said he earned 2000 Yuan a month, but his car payments were 2400 a month and he was surprised that he couldn't keep up with the payments. And for a car that he drove just a couple of weeks a year.
Big brained momemt
This is the income of elderly people who are gatekeepers in China
Idiots.
The irony is parking outside all year round isn't a problem. Just go to it once a month and drive it around for half an hour. Run the AC and heating system, air out the interior while you're doing that and give it a quick wash. You could probably do that for 1 tank of gas a year. You're losing your hundred 50-100k vehicle not to the elements but to simple neglect.
Sounds like they might lose their parking spot if they do that.
We have to register the car every year here in Australia and it's quite expensive, so if it's the same in China, it might not be worth the hassle... I don't know.
Imagine every month, having to walk 3 kilometers more because of losing your parking spot 😂😂😂
Gas starts going bad after 3-6 months. If you want your seals going bad it's up to you
@@bounceday NO its not,i have multiply cars( i dont know why i do it but i love cars),off course i cant drive all that cars ,some have still gas in tank that is 3-4 years old and still starts runs normaly,i keep 12V battery outside off cars if i dont drive them for long
Work 6-7 days a week all day, get to your car, spend over one month's wages just to get it started, then end up trapped in a deadly blizzard. Man it sucks to live in China.. poor people.
It's all just so we can order cheap things online for no money and free shipping. Why the Chinese work for so little money and they should have 5 day work week an 5 weeks payed vacation

I can only imagine hell, that happens on roads at New Year. Roads filled with barely working cars, used by drivers with minimal experience.
my ebay seller said ha can`t ship express delivery and i guess its because of the traffic mayhem and not the single day off lmao
I thought Americans were wasteful with their money. This is ridiculous being a factory worker that buys a car just to have it siting. Chinese buying cars they can't afford and tofu apartments that are overpriced.
Its no wonder why the Chinese car companies are trying to offload cars into European markets producing too much junk to try and keep money flowing.
真的胡说八道
China is a matrix.
Guess that also why most chinese dont care that their byd ching ling smth needs a third engine before 60000 km
The horror of not using your car.
If you use your car more regularly it gets so much easier.
If you do the minimum:
20min rides every 2 weeks for the battery,
5L anti-freeze / clear view 1-2 a year for the pumps,
change engine oil once every 1-2 years,
go to the car wash 2-3 times/year (post autumn, post winter, after dessert winds) a 10€
If you wait to long you have to:
exchange the battery,
have the tank cleaned because of sediments,
pumps renewed/exchanged,
new motor oil every year,
pay high premiums at the car wash.
All correct, but those Guys have no Money to do this like you wrote.
The people that own those cars literally have no use for their car other than going back home because it costs them more than they make to drive it pay parking and gas.......they are just totally hopeless
@@kallegrabowski8972 Maybe they shouldn't own a car then if it cost so much money.
If they move the car for maintenance reasons the parking space will be occupied.
I wonder how many times they could rent a car instead of buying one, but that is probably impossible when everyone is swarming home for Lunar New Year.
6:18 I had a nice pickup truck, but it needed body work, so i could not get license or insurance, it.
I parked it at my father's farm for 5 YEARS!! ...
BUT! .. I went 4 to 6 times a year, and started it, let it idle for an a tie, then took it for a short drive around the farm. I even geased the suspension a couple times, refilled the tires with air, and added some fresh gas and stabilizer, several times! :)
When it was time to repair it, I replaced the rusted body parts and it was ready to go! Some simple tasks like this would keep their ar operational.!!
I think their worksites don’t let you leave except on the new year and come equipped with sue ah side nets. I’m just saying I don’t think they can leave the concentration camps to start car and drive it a few miles every month.
Stop false claiming
What is even the point of having these fancy cars if they are only driven during New Year. It's a waste
yeah why don't they just rent the damn cars. lol
My understanding is that there is a car rental industry in China. Why don't these workers just rent a car?
Because owning a car is a status symbol, it’s all about face in Chinese culture.
They buy the cars for status. Big Baller.😂😂🤦
Not enough rental vehicles available for New Years demand and status.
When all the country goes on vacation on the same date there won't be any available cars for rental and even public transportation tickets must be bought way in advance.
Just steal one of the endless rows of cars. Do the new years deal and return it somewhere/anywhere. Repeat every year.
Respect to the people of China for not vandalize or steal parts. In my country Sweden if you leave the car in a public space for more then 2 weeks there is problems..
lol you missed the part where they mention theres a good chance it'd be broken into, stripped of parts, or stolen entirely.
Is that due to your new demographics?
It's worse in some places in Nigeria. You may have a breakdown this evening & return tomorrow morning, only to find missing tyres and battery🤦
You import the third world, you become the third world. Great job, Sweden!
In Brazil, it's less than 2 days. Stealing cars and selling their parts is a profitable illegal business here. Talk to anyone about "desmanche" here and they'll know who does it in their region.
I have a hard enough time remembering where I parked AN HOUR AGO !!
Why don't you use one of those apple airtags?
I didn't even think about that!!!! lol
Being an ethnic chinese myself, I've always thought financial savvyness was deeply ingrained in chinese culture. I'm surprised there are people who would buy a car just to show off and use it just for the new year.
= =搞笑段子
Thats more so immigrant culture than Chinese culture. This behaviour totally makes sense when basically 2 entire generations have experienced economic growth in China
以前确实很多人买辆车是为了炫耀，现在这种情况很少了，因为即使经济较落后的农村也快做到了“家家户户”有至少一辆车（可能是廉价车），没车的家庭很多时候是因为文化不够，过不了驾照考试。然后现在部分农村交通不怎么便利（因为私家车的兴起和农村人口减少导致公共交通亏损严重而减少/停止营运），特别需要有一辆私家车，以及过年时也特别需要车。我自己的车也是大部分时间在城市里停着，平时坐地铁上下班，车一年跑个七八千公里，但过年那段时间能跑两三千公里。
Car payment -2,500
Job wages. +2,000

= your crazy 🤪
yea wtf did he expect?
Can confirm: there was a virtual parade of cars moved into my block. around 300 of them came all at once. some rumor said a dealership had gone bankrupt but it was strange as most were a few years old and I thought it was strange because they looked unused YET many were dirty looking. Some were tarped. At last I figured out these were 'zombie cars' and the cops cleared them from some other vacant lot where they usually sit all year. Finally, just as Spring Festival started up, many came and drove them away. Many needed battery boosts, tinkering etc before they left for the holidays. Yes, there is a large migrant population here and they found this section is unfinished buildings so they just crammed the place. At one point, they so filled the street that a team of police had to show up and move half of them.
Epitome of saving face culture
Ah, an untapped source of money, all land is owned by the party, all land should have a parking fee.
Since the license plates are tied to national ID and the bank accounts are tied to national ID, the provincial government can directly take their fees! Number one for convenience and efficiency.
hehehe
i think all of these cars on the video all of the owners are possibly have passed away since 2019 - 2022 due to many ominous happenings in china for 3 years and still happening now..
They could afford more fuel if they didn't buy such a fancy car
My family would laugh at me if I tried to impress with an auto. We really don't care unless you hurt others or break the law. The only thing that impresses my parents giving them grandchildren.
Haha, same. Although as much as I'd like to give them one, it's not really up to them, now is it?
My parents raised me the same. If I did something like this, I would be lambasted by my parents for being so dumb and pathetic.
not in china, ppl around you evaluate your worth with thing you own. no standard other than monetary value has left after culture revolution of Mao
Yeah, whats impressive that people take up huge debt to have a new car. Idiots do that
Has a parent of very high achieving kids just getting my kids married let alone real grandchildren would impress me more then anything they’ve done, unfortunately I don’t think my dreams will be achieved in either case.
So you are saying an average Chinese factory worker can afford a Mercedes and Audi???😂
How am i suppose to believe it?😅
They live in a factory often, leave work one day a month for a date 😂
most of those cars are evidence that many chinese died since 2019 until 2022..
That could be a factor.

How lazy are you that you can't show up once a month and take it around the block to make sure it's useable.
You loose your parking spot, haven’t you seen Seinfeld? 😂
Is it? Is it really lazy considering 80 hour workweeks is normal in china?
You would think some enterprising fellow would offer a service for that: every couple of weeks he sends someone around to rotate the tires, tick the engine over etc. All for a nominal fee, of course.
The most surprising part is that they haven't been stolen or just bricked. Even just stealing the catalytic converter, you could resell them easily. It's a huge problem here in the US, and I think the UK too.
That's because the chines are too occupied working Americans have too much time in their hands and some people use that free time to commit crimes
No catalytic converter in China, nothing to steal. No emissions controls at all!
It's not a massive problem here. But it does happen more in poorer areas. maybe hear of one every couple months where I am.
dont know what is worse: the people who want to impress others with a car or the people who are impressed by the car and fuell this behaviour.
It is amazing how much maintenance are required for machineries that aren't being used.
None car people tend to be clueless about car maintenance.
so he buys a car with a monthly cost of 90% of his monthly income on impulse? How stupid can one be?
Heavy marketing, who hasn't bought stuff on impulse and then regretted it. It is how consumerism works.
Fascinating behavior
Ill have to remember this for when Im looking for ways to stay or get into massive debt. Like its a sport.
It used to be that if a Chinese man were to even consider getting married they had to have a job, a bicycle, & a refrigerator, but these days the bride's family expect a prospective husband to have a job, a car, a nice state-owned apartment, & an overseas property!
Many Australians can't afford to buy their own homes as non-Australian citizens buying property over the last 30-40 years have been driving up real-estate prices to absolutely ridiculous levels. In the process, rents have risen way faster than wages, meaning saving for a deposit becomes impossible, even for many with two incomes!
Also adding to the current housing crisis is the abysmally low availability of affordable rental-accommodation, which causes rents to rise even more, but there are many of those Chinese (& other Asians) who leave their properties vacant creating areas of 'zombie' apartments in much the same way as all those zombie-cars!

Unbelievable why not just rent a car for the week. So much cheaper and less aggravation.
There are no cars for rental on new year
@@markmd9
Yeah you’re probably right. Difficult for so many people in China. I lived there for 12 years I never knew of this situation. Life in China is so hard and now getting harder.
The strategy that the Chinese manufacturers employ when entering a new market is self-defeating.
When starting to sell into a foreign market, they just go whole hog and attempt to overwhelm the competition by dumping cheap products in huge quantities. This backfires and brings tariffs and sanctions on the imported goods.
No domestic suppliers will stand still for predatory marketing of products designed to bankrupt local business owners.
Because China 🇨🇳 always wants to dominate a business, they lose all the opportunities if they just start small and prove the products value. Then, if more are in demand, they can expand or partner with local business for distribution purposes.
China 🇨🇳 is greedy, and ox like in dealing with trade and markets, and that's why they fail over and over.
😮😮😮😮😢😢😅
the strategy of your diet is self defeating fatso.
no country can compete with U.S in that regard
You can't do this in America, because you would first get a ticket and if its not moved they will tow it away or worse the cars would be striped of parts after being stolen.
This whole "saving face" thing is a constant thorn in people's sides for generations upon generations.
"I have to show up at home looking rich and important..." blabla... just appearances.

At my old job they bought a 2015 F150 to use for plowing snow. I told the workers to start it every month or so but they didn't listen. It sat 9 months and guess what when it was time to plow nothing worked
Maybe China is gonna make a ripoff of "The Walking Dead" with so many cars on the streets?
Encouraging people to buy a new car when they can barely afford it is downright stupid. Also goes when taking out a loan when your salary will be barely enough to pay the monthly repayments.
"Impulsively took out a loan for a luxury car" ,and I'm supposed to feel bad for these people? Even more so when they can't keep up with the payments.
It's like common sense and financial responsibility goes out the window with these people .
Just follow this, Do you need it or want it? If you don;t need it but want it,can you pay for it? No? Then don't take a loan for it,chances are you won't be able to afford the payments either .
Debt is a moder slavery
But it's their choice to do so
Outstanding information
This is sad considering these are "privately owned vehicles" and not a giant Chinese GM new car husk dumping ground.
I am a german middle class man working for a big german car manufacturer. I dont own a house and I chose to have a reliable but cheap ass Lada Niva where I dont need special tools or electronic devices to make minor repairs.. I use the money I earn to buy organic food and for all the other "needs" nowadays. My TV is not "smart" and around 15years old.. I have certain luxury items myself because the last suit you will ever wear has no pockets but to be forced to fake success to be someone paints a realy weird picture of your society in my oppinion.
That is a fun car, even though not the cheapest I think as they probably drink a lot.
The idea that you must eat -organic" and "bio " foods to be considered a decent person is a lie that has been sold to you. Normal food is okay. And anything you save on repairs on that Lada you have already paid in extra fuel consumption. Your choices do not make good sense.
@@user-gdxt-7399 organic is not a lie, I dont do it to be a decent person. I do it to be heathy and to avoid as much carcinogenic triggers as possible like those you can find plenty in pesticides. Make a test buy 2 different kinds of meat and looks what shrinks more or what the differences in taste are.There is or was a famous Japanese scientist/fotographer he became famous because of his pictures of snowflafes and how different music styles influence the outcome if melted and frozen again. He made some very nice cell-pictures of the diffrerences of bio and not-bio. And to my Lada, yes it drinks much, its loud but it is cheap and I can do allmost everything myself , for cheap. I can screw off electronic parts an when I screw them together the right way it usually works. Try that with modern cars. You can not safely remove a cover without breaking some thing. We mostly use bikes, bus or tram. The car is just to haul or if it necessary and if it comes hard the Lada is a capable machine and it was reliable ever since.
EXCELLENT REPORTING👍
I'd be surprised if half of them make it to their destination at all
So it's all about "face", such BS. I noticed this in some of the the financial crisis videos also, some people in China don't seem to really think about their future and have grown accustomed to making poor choices and then crying that "they're suffering". Hard to sympathise.
Bye a car and don't drive it because fuel cost too much🤦 fuel is cheap compared to the depreciation of the vehicle. This mentality is insane.
... But... car will even start after a year of sitting in place ?
In GOOD garage properly prepared car, can move after getting some fresh oil, gas and full bettery.
But this ones in dust, grass and whole year of external factors ?
Sure. Use a solar panel to keep the battery topped up. Not expensive and saves your battery and of course gets you home
If you let a car sit a year in the US, it will likely need thousands of Dollars in repairs to the gasoline system. US gas is absolutely terrible. it has a large amount of ethanol in it. It turns to jelly and rusts any metal it comes into contact with because ethanol sucks water out of the air. Between jelly and rust, it can destroy the entire fuel system so that you need to replace the tank, all the fuel lines and the injectors and pump. Once jelly forms, there is no real way to get rid of in small fuel lines and injectors.
I had a car in garage that I wasn't driving.
Things of concerns present only the battery to not discharge and tires to not deflate.
Most people from china dont anything about cars or k ow how to drive cars until 2008
How come we don't see this on the Chinese media?
because they have no free media only propaganda
Now I want a cartoon series "I was reincarnated as taxi, in Zombie Car World"
Its.. why you need to get back to your old world values. Sad, tough lesson.
New Car battery sales during the new year: 📈📈📈📈📈
If they're not going to use the car all year they should have their family drive them to the city and take the car back with them so they can take care of it.
Not just a battery, but the fuel also has a shelf life and after a year standing there it will probably be no good.

Was für ein trauriges Video.

In all seriousness. This just makes me feel less bad about some of the stupid things i have wasted too much money on over the years.
I'm a mechanic, you can't let a car sit for a year, especially over dirt or grass, it rots the car underneath, the tires gets flat spots, the oil and other fluids deteriorate. The interior gets moldy, even the gasoline goes bad. These owners don't have the wherewithal to justify owning a car. If I didn't need a car I wouldn't bother because theyre expensive and need attention.
Man these people world sense are on a whole other level.
The pride/face is real for these people.
My dad's van sat for 11 years after he died. It took a little work but I got it running again and am driving it.
I guess China does not have a version like Turo, where you can rent out your car when you are not using it and make money.
Such a waste of resources and shows why China has a really bad environmental standing in the world.
I love turo when traveling
Because nobody needs an car for 11 months of the year and EVERYBODY wants a car for that 1 month of the year. You see the problem?

What a waste! Just why?? Concerned about fuel? The car cost way more!
Really sick!
would it be cheaper just to rent a car for a day or a week and after, return it back... When I go long family trips, I go rent a car. This is just bad money management what so many Chinese folks are doing.
You go try and rent a car at the exact same time as everybody else in your country wants to rent a car
Yeah, my car only uses a few tanks of gas per year, too. It really helps when you rarely drive.
Germany gives this country 500 million euros a year.

so why do you own a car then?
@@drvic10k Going home to visit my parents, two-three times a year.
Why not just rent a car? Or take public transport?
@@arit8401 My parents live in a hill station. The only public transports to go there are buses or taxis. The problem is that I'd have to change multiple public transports to reach there. One from my current state to the capital city of my home state then from the capital city to my parents home. I'd rather take my car. Plus, I may not need a car everyday but when I really need it, it really comes in handy. For example, My sister came to visit me a few weeks ago and I can't take her on a city tour on a bus.
I get that. I thought I didn't need a car before, but since I have one I always find purpose for it. Buying furniture, bringing stuff to the dump, visiting my mum.
Cars can break down just sitting, because they're not being used, all seals that are made of rubber can dry out, meaning lots can go wrong as soon as they're started again

And yes, they are also cars that are stationary, but for a completely different reason.
This really hurts to watch as a car lover. Hell, just as someone with common sense... These cars are worth so much money and are so beautiful, yet they're just left to rot like that. And the cost of repairs after all that must be so high, too. I don't understand what these people must be thinking.
what does "two-tank car" mean?
thank you for making these videos👍
That’s what happens when your country is un efficient
Better use a fuel stabilizer like Stabil. Gas starts to go bad within 6 months or less.
Gass typically loses its octane and goes bad in 6 months, did you change your gas?
How wasteful. I worked hard for my car. I put my car in the repair shop for a day or week(tree fell on it and a hail storm, you wouldn't believe how much I missed my car. Getting back in my car is like coming home after being away for months.
Why not rent a car if you're only going to use it once a year? This makes no sense.
10:54 What a fool. Why would you buy a car that costs more per month than you make? Why do that?
Why do people want to work in a factory instead of on the land in the countryside this looks really depressing being stuck in a factory for so long
Bus pass looking nice nowadays lol
I wish to know where these cars are exactly parked, asking for a friend
I'm here hoping to save up enough to buy a car while in some countries cars are going to waste like this.
They must not pay registration, property taxes or insurance on them! Taxes and insurance payments are half the cost of the vehicle ownership here.
Send them over to America so we can bring our used car prices down! Everything is so overpriced here.
Sad and very true!
We should halt global production of cars for a while mainly because cars last a long time and they are also unaffordable for most of the world. We dont need new cars every year, it's incredibly wasteful. We need to bring back public transportation and the use of bicycles and scooters.
Do you have any idea how many people are employed worldwide by car manufactures? Not even to mention the sub contractors that make parts for those manufacturers? Just stopping that would create a worldwide catastrofe
Just in case: I hope you understand that halting production drives prices up ? Demand stays, supply disappears - voila, prices go to the moon.
The Chinese are intelligent and economical people, buying instead of renting a car to use once a year makes zero sense. Chinese new year was only three weeks ago, what you’re seeing is probably car owners that passed away during the pandemic. 😢
Why don't they unplug the battery before leaving it? So dumb.
Wow!
Damn a National Geographic documentary on this would be beautiful.
Why can't someone just drop off the owner in the city and just drive the car back to the country? Two tank cars make zero sense.
