These are the cars that the executives presenting them couldn’t hide the ‘WTF’ face, and no amount of booth babes could make them attractive. These are the top (bottom) ten worst concept cars of 2008.
Most of these cars made this list because they were ugly. So comment away, because beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
A few made this list because they are utterly useless. That’s a tough distinction to make. Many concept cars are not practical, but some stand out as a complete waste of space.
Just like yesterday’s top ten concept cars, these ten bottom-feeders must have been in an auto show or officially recognized by a car manufacturer in 2008.
So here is the list (in alphabetical order) of the top ten worst concept cars of 2008:
Bertone BAT 11
Bertone is the styling house for some of the great automotive classics: Lamborghini Miura and Countach, Fiat Dino, Iso Grifo, Citroen XM, and many others. But it hasn’t had a hit in a while. The BAT 11 isn't one either.
This looks like what would happen if Vespa got to design the Batmobile.
-
Chrysler ecoVoyager
The idea of removing the B-pillar for an open air experience is great, but it can't hide the fact you're still a jellybean.
-
Dodge Caravan R/T
This is not the way to reclaim your testicles. That's what the big back seat in the Dodge Challenger is for.
-
Ford Explorer America
Anyone remember the “Bitter Beer Face”?
-
Kia Kee
This is the only car that looks good in pastels. It's hard for this one to look mean, even after running over your grandmother.
-
Knight KV
Debuting at SEMA, this was Pimp My Ride meets a disputed eastern European country. How paranoid do you have to be before this seems like a good option?
-
Nissan Nuvu
Yes Nissan it was amazing how fast you could pull off an electric car, but that doesn't mean you have to design it to look as surprised as we all were.
-
Renault Ondelios
One big door. Huh? What?
-
Scion Hako Coupe
McGruff the Crime Dog your vehicle is now ready.
-
Toyota Yaris Club
Sorry, you're still not cool , but nice try though.
