Copiaron el mejor Mercedes de la historia... y crearon el peor coche del mundo

What happens when a secretive regime tries to copy the best Western car? This is the incredible story of North Korea's Mercedes, the Kaengsaeng 88. In the late 1980s, the Sungri factory was tasked with dismantling the legendary Mercedes-Benz 190E (W201 chassis) for reverse engineering, without official blueprints. The result, this official Pyongyang car, also known as the Pyongyang 4.10, was an automotive disaster with Soviet-made engines, crude finishes, and constant mechanical failures that communist propaganda tried to hide from the South Korean economy. #cars #classiccars #kaengsaeng88
