Surprisingly, the Volvo, known for its robustness, appeared relatively unscathed, considering it had just encountered a mammoth 6-ton armored limousine. Compounding the situation, the Russian police seemed intent on concealing the incident, well aware of the prominent individual involved and the gravity of the situation.
I cannot stop laughing, this is way too good.

Russian Patriarch Kyrill’s car, a Russian Aurus Senat, crashed into a Volvo XC60. The Russian-made car is completely broken apart at the front as if it hit a boulder. The Volvo on the other side looks pretty good for a car which just… pic.twitter.com/RWhfHwZEhC
According to Russian media, the Aurus Senate had government plates. However, the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Kirill (the alleged user of the luxury car) was not in the car at the time of the accident.
This collision perfectly encapsulates the distinctive traits associated with each vehicle's country of origin. The Swedish-made Volvo, often revered for its sturdiness, emerged from the encounter as a testament to its reputation. Designed like a tank of the automotive world, the Volvo XC60 showed resilience in the face of a formidable adversary.
On the other hand, the Russian Aurus Senat's catastrophic condition after the collision is emblematic of a different aspect. Despite being a product "Made-in-Russia," it failed to withstand the impact, suggesting a discrepancy between its anticipated durability and the actual outcome. This incident serves as a stark reminder that not all Russian-made products live up to their promises.
Furthermore, the response of the Russian police raises eyebrows. Their attempts to conceal the incident raise suspicions about their motives. The fact that they were fully aware of the involved party and the severity of the collision adds an air of intrigue to the situation.
Aurus Senat
Aurus Senat is a luxury car produced by the Russian automotive brand Aurus. Aurus is a subsidiary of Rostec, a state-owned technology corporation in Russia.

The Aurus Senat competes with other luxury brands worldwide and aims to establish itself as a symbol of Russian excellence in the automotive industry.
