Just before Christmas my own ship (a mere 4750 x 20ft units and which was the biggest containership in the world back in 1994!) had a full cargo of 4600 x20ft containers solely for Walmart from China to the USA, and the 7 other sister ships on the service also had full cargoes of Chinese tat for Walmart.
My humble boat will carry one person,a camera, food and drink for the day and a first aid kit. But I guess it will pass the river in the movie better than a D3 or a container ship....

Well...
I have had some comments on the D3 driver as being in danger as the car could have got washed away being waterproof whereas a proper land rover such as a Defender would have fared better as the water coming in (The car not being waterproof...) would have "anchored" the vehicle to the bottom...
No matter what you tell some people, they will still be anchored in their ways...
You do what you want in your car and I will do what I want in my car.
BTW it is a proper Land Rover and some!
Fully agree on Gurvan.
As a kayaker, I know the enormous strength water with this speed has!
I live next to a river which I can pass on normal water levels in an angle of 90° towards the river. As soon as the water would reach the body of the car, it would be washed away pretty sure. Do not understimate the power of cubic meters of water pushing your car at a speed of for example the river in this topic.
