There are so many different cars that have been graded as the ugliest cars in the world. But, the interesting thing is that one particular car continues to appear in all the lists. It’s a car called Pontiac Aztek. However, aside from this particular vehicle, other vehicles have also been graded as some of the ugliest cars in history.
If you’ve ever wondered about the cars that are considered the ugliest, then check this article out to learn the top three cars that are considered the ugliest globally.
- The 2012 Fisker Karma
The 2012 Fisker Karma was one of the most unconventional cars ever made. It was an electric car that had a petrol engine that didn’t work as an engine as much as it did as a generator. So confusing that it caused a lot of issues that Fisker kept having to fix during its release.

That was the first issue with the Karma, the second was that its design was both stunning and hideous at the same time. The body of the Karma was sleek and modern for its time. The designer and owner of the company Henrik Fisker is a car designer by trade and used to work for both Aston Martin and BMW.
The problem is that Karma had an ugly exterior look. It had a moustache made of huge vents, which made no sense on an electric vehicle. However, the Karma had a decent performance, such as doing 0-60 in 6.3 seconds and being able to take turns at high speeds with no shifting.
The biggest problem for the Karma was that it was priced as a luxury sedan but because of its face, it neither looked as good as the competition nor performed how it should have for its price. Consumer Reports gave it a failing grade after comparing it to the Porsche Panamera, which was priced in the same ballpark. The Fisker could have performed well if it had made changes to its price tag and definitely to its design.
- The Chrysler Crossfire
The Chrysler Crossfire was an excellent car on paper. It combined design elements from Chrysler with a Mercedes-Benz SLK engine. So, American stability with German performance.
Unfortunately, Crossfire’s design elements weren’t well-received by critics. The Crossfire came with several engine variants, all versions of the SLK, however, none of them were able to perform like the Mercedes due to poor weight distribution and body design.
The Crossfire could have been a great car. Its shortfalling was the fact that Chrysler never actually took the time to design the car. If they had, the Crossfire could have been a huge success.
- The Subaru Baja
The Subaru Baja wasn’t well-received by critics or even long-term fans of the manufacturer.
It found itself being somewhere in the middle of being a car and being a truck. The plus side is that it performs well. It can haul, and with the rear gate, you can even have a 5-foot truck bed to use.
However, it falls short when it comes to the design aspects that make the vehicle functional. Such as the fact that if the tailgate is down, you can’t see the license plate, and of course, the overall design was not a pretty one.
Conclusion
No matter how much car buyers pay attention to performance and features when buying a car, the truth is that no one wants to buy an ugly car. Why? A car is a huge investment. These three ugly cars fell just short of hitting the mark, which is why they are not popularly known and shows that no one wants an ugly-looking car.
