A video from @thecarscene_ opens with a red banner that reads “Classic cars are back!! And you have China to thank,” and its caption puts a question to viewers: “Haven’t we wanted this for so long? But do you mind the screens and the fact they are electric? Still cool!”

The clip runs about 55 seconds and moves through an indoor show hall past a display with a sign reading Fullgood. It shows brand new electric vehicles styled to echo classic Western cars, including a Corvette shape and a VW camper van shape, with custom motorcycles parked in between.

The first car on screen is a red sedan with tall tail fins and chrome trim, sitting low in the middle of the display. The on screen text at that point reads “China is reviving classic cars and they are doing so in spectacular fashion.” The camera circles from the front to the rear fins and the taillights, and the next line of text is simply “How insane.”

Next comes a turquoise open top two seater with a rounded body. The camera moves in over the door to a cream interior with a large touchscreen in the dash, and the words Fullgood Motor are printed on the steering wheel. The text on screen at that point says “All these cars are electric,” then “Look at that, with screens.” After a custom motorcycle with the text “And check this out,” the video returns to a second turquoise roadster, introduced as “another Corvette looking one,” this time from the rear, where a small display plate sits on the floor in front of the car.

The yellow and white van gets the label “This is the best one!” The on screen text calls it “sort of, a T2, T1 VW camper van.” With the front and side doors open, the camera shows rows of cream seats and the text “Whoa, crazy,” followed by “very much missed opportunity.” Then the camera moves to the nose, which has round headlight “eyes,” a mesh grille and a round badge, and the text reads “But nevertheless, check at that, and then you get this, like, retro design.” The last text on the van asks “Would you buy one of these?” and adds “Oh my word, guys. It’s out of hand.” The final frames pan back across the turquoise roadster and a vintage style open wheel car beside it.

The camper van shape the clip points to has a documented history. According to Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, the first Transporter, the Type 2, came off the line at the Wolfsburg plant on 8 March 1950, after a hand built panel van prototype was shown to the media on 11 November 1949. It launched as a panel van, a passenger van with windows and an eight seat bus, and the Micro Bus De Luxe, unofficially called the Samba bus, followed in 1951 with all round windows, roof windows and a folding sunroof. Volkswagen says about 1.9 million of the original T1 vehicles were sold before the T2 replaced it in 1967.

The screens and the electric power the caption asks about come down to how an electric car is built. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Alternative Fuels Data Center explains that an all electric vehicle stores energy in a battery pack that powers the motor, and that the battery is charged by plugging into an electric power source. It adds that the EPA classifies these vehicles as zero emission vehicles because they produce no direct exhaust or tailpipe emissions, while noting that producing the electricity can still contribute to air pollution.
