25. Pontiac Aztek
Introduced in 2001, the Pontiac Aztek was a mid-size crossover SUV that garnered immediate attention for its unconventional and polarizing design. Marketed as a “sport recreational vehicle,” it featured a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout with an optional all-wheel-drive system. Despite its innovative features, the Aztek faced criticism for its aesthetics and failed to meet sales expectations, leading to its discontinuation in 2005. (en.wikipedia.org)
