20. Lexus CT 200H
Lexus insists it can beat the German car manufacturers in the luxury vehicle game, and sure enough, the company tries hard to do so. However, sometimes the failure is obvious, like in the case of the CT 200H. Marketed as a premium compact hatch with a performance edge, the CT 200H is nothing more than a Prius in fancy clothes.
This means it is painfully slow, dull to drive, and embarrassing pulling out from the stoplight. This car is not something people want to buy. Every magazine that tested the CT 200H was disappointed with its slow performance and poor driving dynamics.
