Chevrolet Camaro Iron Duke
Cramming a four-cylinder into a Camaro shouldn’t have been rocket science, right? Not in the case of the Iron Duke, which is dubbed the worst Camaro of all time. The Iron Duke was General Motors’ new and improved four-cylinder engine, but in reality, it was worse than anything else. The engine was severely underpowered, especially when compared to the heft of the Camaro (via Auto Blog).
The Iron Duke was a failure by enormous standards for GM, and it showed how difficult it was for an automaker to move from V8 power to a smaller displacement. Nowadays four-cylinder Camaros are all the rage, but back then the Iron Duke was a sad example. These Iron Dukes should be avoided at all costs.
