As 2025 draws to a close, we took a look back at our most watched YouTube videos and noticed they had one thing in common.
It’s been a big year for us, and we can’t wait to see what 2026 brings.
But before that, we’re going to take a look back at some of the videos that our followers couldn’t get enough of.
From robots to cars – we saw it all this year.

These were our most-watched YouTube videos in 2025
1) Unboxing A $3500 Chinese Dodge RAM – 7 million views
Back in February, Nathan Bain took a closer look at this $3,500 Chinese Dodge Ram and compared it to the real thing.
Out on the road, this sandy-colored Ram handled itself remarkably well.
Whilst the tires were distractingly small, we have to say that this imitator does hold up against the original.
2) Unboxing A $4000 Chinese Land Rover Defender – 1.3 million views
Speaking of unboxings, do you remember when we ordered a $4,000 fake Land Rover Defender from China?
It didn’t quite have the stature of its original, but how did it do on a 45-degree hill climb?
Well, it was a real nail-biter, that’s for sure.

3) Inside The World’s Most Advanced Robots – 706k views
And then there was the time we got up close and personal with some of the robots from Unitree Robotics.
Our very own Sergi Galiano flew out to China to spend some time with these humanoid bots, which are capable of running, flipping, and even fighting.
Fortunately, they’re a few years off from being The Terminator.
We can’t help but wonder what kind of robots we’ll see coming our way in 2026.
4) Fake Chinese Dodge RAM VS Fake Chinese Land Rover Defender – 476k views
This wasn’t exactly a clash of titans, but it was still cool to see.
It was a battle of the Chinese duplicates, with the fake Dodge Ram going head-to-head with the fake Land Rover Defender.

“It’s the pride of America and the pride of the UK…made in China,” Sergi declared.
In the end, it turned out to be quite a humiliating defeat for one of these cars. Rewatch the video above to refresh your memory and have a laugh.
5) Mercedes Vision V is A Cinema On Wheels – 438k views
And finally, we have the luxurious Mercedes Vision V.
We got an up-close look at this car, and it was a real treat.
Once you get past the facial recognition entry, you’ll be treated to white Napa leather and wooden interior finishes.
And as if that wasn’t enough to tempt you, how does a 6-foot 4K TV screen sound?

What do our most-watched YouTube videos have in common with each other?
You may have noticed a common theme running through the videos featured in this line-up.
Well, China plays a role in four of our five highest-viewed videos.
Three of said videos involve a duplicate, and the fourth is about a Chinese robotics company.
It seems like China was generating a lot of buzz this year, and we can’t say we’re surprised.
You need only look at the meteoric rise of BYD to see how far the country’s innovations are coming along.
So there you have it – these were our five most-watched YouTube videos of 2025.
Who knows what 2026 will bring?
