In China, one woman noticed how the rising temperature was beginning to affect vehicles, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Jennifer Zeng, a human rights activist and author, took a series of photos and videos to showcase the phenomenon.
Her footage has gone viral on social media with over 750,000 views and 3,700 likes.
The 57-year-old films several vehicles which are parked along the streets and in car parks.
The first clip shows a burgundy vehicle with a huge red bump rising from its bonnet.
The second video shows a purple car with two bumps along the doors and another big one also on its bonnet.
The third is a white car with a bump coming from the bonnet.
And the fourth is a blue ‘pregnant’ car.
The post was captioned: “No joke! Made-in-China cars get “pregnant” when it’s too hot.”
Social media users have been left cracking jokes.
Rudy commented: “Is it a boy or girl?”
Sash wrote: “Super funny if real and very creative.”
Jyoti added: “If they deliver the baby after cooling down, then its a feature otherwise a failure.”
Someone else said: “Sperms are mating due to excess heat.”
However, one user offered an explanation.
Tyler said: “Those are wraps and if there’s moisture underneath it will fill with water vapour.”
