The Automobile show in France 2022 came with some gut-wrenching moments for Ferrari lovers, exhibiting eco-activists vandalizing super-expensive Ferrari cars. Members of a global environmental activist group –dubbed “Extinction Rebellion France” – ruined a batch of supercars amid a motor show recently concluded in France.
As per international media reports, four out of the near dozen protesters vandalized three models of the Prancing Horse Ferrari, including the Testarossa worth $ 180,000 with ink and glue. They splodge black paint on the bonnet of cars. Also, they were holding banners, playing cards, and chanting slogans.

The activists were protesting to end advertising ownership of private vehicles and steering the public transportation out of the prevailing challenges. Protestors said that promotion of personal vehicles as the “transport of the future” is just a menace in terms of the current increase in electricity and fuel prices.
The Extinction Rebellion is famous for the action slamming the government to avoid action coming against the climate system, biodiversity loss laced with a risk of ecological and social collapse. Therefore, they are also denounced for their relentless stunts against ordinary public members.
It is pertinent to mention that this is not the first incidents. Earlier, another group of activists named “Scientist Rebellion” hit the Porsche exhibition center in Germany on Wednesday, Oct 19.
