Turkish company Letrons posted a video to YouTube showing their creation, which is also dubbed Letrons, taking an outdoor test drive.

The video shows the car driving around a paved lot before stopping and transforming into a giant robot that moves its head, arms and fingers. The robot then transforms back into a car and continues its drive. Letrons said it took 12 engineers a total eight months to create the robot using what used to be a BMW sports car.
