After seeing this pic of a 'Subaru Traviq' in the comments, I wondered: what are the most horrific examples of rubbish badge engineering? Suggestions please!
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.

are people here forgetting about the Kia Elan?
Isuzu Trooper/Acura SLX
Holden Jackaroo in Australia
VW Routan is just a fancy Chrysler Town and Country
The worst offender right here. It’s not likeVW doesn’t have vans of their own. Just cheaper to rebadge a Chrysler.
Never knew this was even build haha
-03 Seat Alhambra is a Volkswagen Sharan
And the ford galaxy
volkswagen , audi, seat and skoda are all part of the same group. you could had gotten the ford galaxy tho . in that gen the were just rebadged sharans
Lotus Elan as Kia Elan/Vigato
But KIA got it right, plus it’s not badge engineered because the Lotus Elan finished production and so KIA bought the rights and the tooling and put their own engine into it. So not, badge engineered, but their own engineering!
Dodge Circuit EV.
whats this based on?
Kadett E
Ford fiesta mustang or as my friend calls it, the fiestang
Tank —— copy of Volvo
Its just like my moms car. Search on google: Chevrolet Zafira
