29. Kaiser-Frazer Vagabond
Although no one remembers it, the Kaiser-Frazer Vagabond was the first American hatchback they offered. And it was way before anything else. They introduced it in 1951. Interestingly, it had a two-piece tailgate for easier access to the trunk compartment.
The idea was great, and it was executed nicely without affecting the original sedan design. However, the market wasn’t impressed, so the Vagabond only got a mild reception, so they soon abandoned production.
