Automotive designers around the world come up with the most incredible concepts to create the most attractive car possible. True, they do not always succeed. And as a result, frankly unsuccessful cars in terms of design come out onto the conveyor. We have collected 15 car models that can be entered into the list of "most ridiculous cars". However, people with a sense of humor may choose something from this list as their personal car.
1. Zundapp Janus (1958 onwards)
It looks like the designer of this car was clearly a substance abuser. Who in their right mind can place doors where the windshield should be?
2. Pontiac Aztek (2001 onwards)
The world is unlikely to ever know what it was supposed to be: a minivan, an SUV or a tent.
3. Volkswagen Thing (1974 onwards)
The only correct thing that was done in this car is its name ("Thing - thing"). The first thought that comes to mind is a matchbox on wheels. The second is a really incomprehensible "thing".
4. Trabant (1957 onwards)
Trabant is a car that was clearly designed for dystopia, for a time when people will have no more than one and a half meters of personal space. There is nothing attractive about the car at all.
5. Nash Airflyte (1950 onwards)
The Nash Airflyte, launched in 1950, is an obvious failed attempt to make a car as aerodynamic as possible. The result is something that looks more like a caricature.
6. Tatra 603 (1956 onwards)
The Tatra 603 looks like it should be swimming in the depths of the sea. Maybe the designer was inspired to this shape of the car by some fancy deep-sea stingray or a sticking fish.
7. Fiat Multipla (1998 onwards)
This Fiat looks more like a cute alien lifeform than a car.
8. Citroen 2CV (1948 onwards)
The 1948 Citroen 2CV looks like a cheap fake Volkswagen Beetle, but uglier.
9. AMC Pacer (1975 onwards)
Pacer is a great example of how you can squeeze all kinds of conflicting design ideas into one disgusting product.
10. Phantom Corsair (1938 onwards)
The car, which, after it rolled off the assembly line, was immediately nicknamed "/>
11. Lincoln Continental (1958 onwards)
Lincoln Continental 1958 because of its excessive length, it looked more like a boat than a car. But the designer did not stop there and added a massive front bumper, slanted headlights and a low roof.
12. Alfa Romeo Alfetta (1975 onwards)
The Alfetta executive sedan, created by the Italian car manufacturer Alfa Romeo, sold 400,000 units between 1972 and 1987. However, he was constantly under fire of criticism, not only because of his appearance, but also because of the wild amount of harmful emissions into the atmosphere.
13. Overland OctoAuto (1911 onwards)
Apparently the designer who created Overland OctoAuto paid special attention to the wheels.
14. Packard Hawk (1958 onwards)
Hawk looks more like a failed attempt to combine two machines into one. An absolute failure of the designers, critics are sure.
15. Davis D-2 Divan (1947)
The most ridiculous model in the history of the automotive industry, many experts call the Davis D-2 Divan 1947 c. with a hood that resembles an exaggeratedly large cartoon nose.
