Top Gear Russia is a motoring television series on Ren-TV based on the BBC series. It premiered on 22 February 2009
The Russian version suffers from similar issues to the Australian Top Gear. Trying too hard to be like the original, and not enough unique new concepts brought to the show.
Still, it remains to be seen what the show’s intended audience thinks of it. No doubt all the backwards letters make more sense to them than they did to us.
As a matter of fact they even showed one product used earlier in UK - Top Gear.
