This recent video that appeared online shows the moment a Lagos-based Lexus SUV owner struggles to escape a flooded area, even though Lexus cars have been noted as reliable enough to navigate flood.
The video shared online by @automobil_poacher shows the car owner repeatedly struggling to make it through the flooded street. Interestingly, he makes it out but it’s not without the Lexus developing any potential issues.
Many who have seen the post have applauded not just the driver but the Lexus for being able to navigate the difficult situation, noting that a Mercedes vehicle would not have made it through the flooded road. However, many also note that the vehicle will have developed some faults in the process.
