I'd like to nominate the 1961 Plymouth Savoy as ugliest car. Design had been set to include fins when corporate heads learned the competition had moved on from fins. Eliminated they were, but what was left was an incredible expanse of trunk ugliness...sadly the front wasn't any better.

As for the Aztec, while it's said the design studio never had a meeting on it's final look, with effort they can be made to look more cohesive (and less dumpster looking).

I'd love to know what hit that right-side fender. Whatever it was probably would total a brand new BMW these days...

I actually forgot about the Fiat Multipla. We didn't get those here in the USA that I know of, but damn, that one has to be at the top. I'd like to change my vote lol

The Vehicross's terrible appearance however is timeless.
I had one as a rental back in 2007-08. The suspension was so poorly done that to this day it is the only car which actually felt unsafe driving.

The Aztec easily as it was DOA. Bob Lutz mentions that GM rejected the market research and released it despite it being the worst vehicle they ever brought to a product clinic;

Quote:
Early on, the Aztek obviously failed the market research. But in those days, GM went ahead with quite a few vehicles that failed product clinics. The Aztek didn’t just fail—it scored dead last. Rock bottom. Respondents said, “Can they possibly be serious with this thing? I wouldn’t take it as a gift.” And the GM machine was in such denial that it rejected the research and just said, “What do those a**holes know?”

Aztek. Hands down. I’d take any car on this list before an Aztek! There is a reason Walter White ditched that piece of shit as soon as he got some cash. 😂

Yeah, those are violently bad, especially the weird roof. But it has been so bad that it stopped LR from trying it too.

10 years ago I would have said Aztec, but since Breaking Bad that car has become cool, and with cars like the X6, GLE "Coupe", ZDX, etc. Coming out, its style is no longer that original or as terrible as it once was. I would say Murano CrossCab and Multipla are my choices.
