Kei cars in Japan are Japanese cars with unique designs. Mazda's AZ-1 was one such example, and it debuted at the Tokyo automobile show in 1989. It is an unusual car that appeals to youth with its gull-wing door, turbocharged engine, and fetal Ferrari-like looks. The AZ-1 produced 63 horsepower, 63 lb-ft torque.
Fiat Multipla
The Fiat Multipla was a three abreast MPV car that revolutionized it. Although it remained virtually unchanged between 1998 and 2010, it was subject to a few restyles, including a dramatic facelift in 2004. This car was one of the first practical MPVs, with 3 front seats and massive windows all around. When you say Fiat Multipla, it's usually followed immediately by the word ugly. Its heavy, bulky frame and large, bulging windows gave the car the appearance of a giant greenhouse.
Ferrari 512S Modulo
The Ferrari 512S Modulo, an unusually shaped car, was revealed at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show. Pininfarina collaborated with Paolo Martin to create the unique design. The car featured a wooden body with a canopy roof. It was able to slide forward for entry and departure. The car also featured Ferrari's 800 horsepower V12 engine. It was capable of reaching a top speed of 242mph and could accelerate from 0-60 in just 3.1 seconds.
Lamborghini LM002
The Lamborghini LM002 is a massive off-roader from the 1980s. This car was originally intended to replace the Lamborghini Cheetah. However, it ended up being a disaster. The company produced the LM002, which was loaded with luxury and a V12 at the front. Lamborghini also created a special estate model of the LM002 in order to increase its competitiveness for the Sultan de Brunei. Salvatore Diomante in Italy modified the estate edition.
Mercedes Benz 6X6
The Mercedes Benz G63 AMG 6X6 is a strange and unusual car. The model was introduced in 2013 and was highly anticipated. This model was on the same market as the holy trio of hybrid hypercars. It represented the highest level of excess. A Brabus-tuned version of the Mercedes G63 AMG is even crazier. Is it worth the cost?
Subaru SVX
The Subaru SVX is a strange car that makes use of glass and an odd color scheme to create a surprisingly unique look. The SVX's dashboard features Alcantara and the doors are made from faux wood. It also features an unusual shifter handle and a solid steel moonroof. The Subaru SVX, aside from its bizarre design, is a stunning look and a must see for Subaru enthusiasts.
