Ok...my first guess is Cuba, second guess is eastern Europe.

This must be a promotional car for the hit song "We all live in a submersible housing collective"!
Who am I kidding, I'd totally drive that :D

A fellow in Havana created it. Depending upon where you go on the interwebs, its either a work of art or a boat to get some Cubans to the US. Rumors of it being a Narco Sub are unfounded. I think it looks a bit creepy.

This piece appeals to me, but then again I went to art school and also enjoy art cars.

The artist's name appears to be Esterio Segura.  He's also added wings to a '50s Chrysler.  https://www.dreamstime.com/photos-images/esterio-segura.html

Here's a small amount of background info regarding the "Sub".  It was shown in 2012 as part of an outdoor art show in Cuba.  The one photo of the car is rather dark and just about unusable.

Here's an all too brief video.

 

As it turns out the car part of this art work is not fully functional...it is seen flat-towed to the installation in the pictures linked here.   https://dedelmu.com/obra/home-made-submarines/
