A Volvo, a Miata or a McLaren F1? SocialOrbit's getaway-car debate

The short drew about six times the comments of a usual first day, and many of them argue that an electric car could simply be switched off from afar.

Why this story? The video drew 517 comments in its first day, 6.4 times a normal first day on this channel (81).

HOW TO OUTRUN THE COPS

"HOW TO OUTRUN THE COPS" is a short on SocialOrbit, a car channel whose newest uploads rank, praise and grumble: cars that aged terribly, perfect cars that got ruined, the best-sounding German cars, a case for the Lamborghini Huracán as underrated. This one asks what you would drive if the sirens came on behind you, and the comment section answered at length.

It gathered more than 500 comments in its first day, where a SocialOrbit short usually collects about 80. The views stayed near the channel's ordinary pace, so this was talk rather than a crowd.

The replies suggest the video's own answer is electric, and many viewers argue with it. Several name Tesla and point out that a connected car could be shut down remotely, or simply run out of charge mid-chase. One of the most liked replies settles the whole question in a few words: it only works in Grand Theft Auto.

Others bring their own picks. One wants a quiet Volvo that disappears into traffic, another a sleeper that looks stock and hides real power. A McLaren F1 gets nominated purely for the chance to drive one, a tuned 350Z turns up, and someone suggests a Miata, mostly for the fun of pushing it that hard.
