Viral Video Claims Solar-Powered Fairground Car Is Driving Through Beirut

A video drawing widespread attention online has been shared with claims that it shows a fairground ride vehicle travelling among cars on a street in Beirut.

Accounts circulating the clip say the vehicle was fitted with a solar panel, presenting it as an improvised response to high fuel prices in Lebanon.

But the information provided does not establish where or when the footage was recorded. It also offers no independent confirmation that the vehicle is powered by solar energy.

The claim linking the vehicle to Lebanon’s fuel costs therefore remains unverified. Confirming the story would require tracing the original footage and establishing the vehicle’s location and how it operates.
