The 12 Most Ridiculous Car Names, As Chosen By You
1. Mitsubishi Lettuce
Because all the best cars are named after leafy vegetables.
2. Honda Wonderful Open-Hearted Wagon
A concept built for the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show, the Wonderful Open-Hearted Wagon or ‘Wow’ is designed specifically for the needs of dog owners…
3. Scion xD
"It looks like someone is laughing at the name ‘Scion’"
4. Kia Pro_Cee'd
Car names really don’t need punctuation marks, which is why the Pro_Cee’d was almost joined on this list by the VW ‘up!’.
5. Proton Satria Son of a Gun XLS
When it comes to badly-named Protons, this just wins out over the ‘Satria Neo’.
6. Vauxhall/Opel Mokka
I like coffee. I like cars. But that doesn’t mean I want a car named after a sort of coffee bean.
7. Daihatsu Naked
Just imagine telling people you own a ‘Naked’. Awkward.
8. Chevrolet Celebrity Eurosport
Celebrity is already a fairly duff name (and one General Motors had previously used on the Oldsmobile brand), but Chevrolet made things worse by tacking ‘Eurosport’ on the end on this sportier variant.
9. Geely Beauty Leopard
"Neither fast like a leopard, nor beautiful."
10. Suzuki Mom’s Personal Wagon
This concept served as a preview for the second-generation Suzuki MR. Fortunately, when the production version arrived, Suzuki stuck with the ‘MR’ name.
11. Mazda Secret Hideout
"But it’s yellow, so not that secret."
12. Isuzu Mysterious Utility Wizard
This one’s often referred to as the ‘MU’, but if you owned one, you’d just have to use the full name, wouldn’t you?
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.
