Kultureller Hintergrund
Lithuanians are very proud of their cars. It is common to spend a large portion of one's income on a high-quality vehicle. Rallying is a major sport in the Baltics. 'Greitas automobilis' is a term you will hear constantly on sports radio. After 1990, the influx of German cars (Audi, BMW, VW) defined the 'greitas automobilis' ideal for a generation. In cities like Vilnius, electric cars are becoming the new 'greiti automobiliai' due to their rapid acceleration.
