Killer Cars in Mad Max Fury Road

Nux's Chevy five-window coupe, with a super-turbocharged, nitrous-boosted, steel coil, V8 engine.

“There were cars that would only drive in reverse, and some had to snap in half,” Gibson says. Many of the wide-range shots were filmed with helicopters and drones at up to 100 kilometers (62 miles) per hour. All the stunts were real.
