In Moscow, a group of bloggers decided to test the BMW X6, but the ride quickly took a grim turn on a night road.

As the engine roared to life, the crew’s excitement rose. The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation of a daring evening drive through the Russian capital, where the glow of streetlights and the hum of the city provided a cinematic backdrop. The moment felt like a teaser for a high-speed adventure, and the participants spoke in quick, animated bursts, imagining the possibilities that lay ahead on the empty stretches of roadway.

One of the voices in the front seat cut through the chatter with a note of uneasy certainty. The remark came with a hint of prophetic fear: the car, they joked, might be more than a thrill ride—it could become a risk if not handled with care. The tension in the cabin was palpable, a mix of adrenaline and caution that often accompanies the first moments of a controlled test drive.

Shortly after departure, a Hyundai Porter truck overturned in the path of the convoy. The BMW X6 struck the vehicle, and the impact sent shudders through the car as it veered away from the road and toward a roadside obstacle. Fortunately, no lives were lost in the crash, but the accident left the X6 shaken and visibly damaged. The front end suffered severe damage, and the vehicle skidded into a post, buckling under the force of the collision. The truck’s heavy body broke apart on impact, underscoring the seriousness of the moment and the unpredictability of real-world testing on public roads. The incident served as a stark reminder of the dangers that can accompany ambitious filming projects and high-speed maneuvers, even when the participants are seasoned drivers and experienced commentators. The scene, captured on camera, later circulated with a cautionary note about vehicle dynamics and road safety.
