Pontiac Aztek
The Pontiac Aztek was the first SUV ever sold by the Pontiac brand. There were many interesting positives to the Aztek, such as its built-in camping tent. But the negatives far outweighed the positives, as the Aztek was a poor seller for GM. The sales were so poor that the SUV was lambasted by the automotive press (via Auto Week).
The styling of the Aztek was a particularly tough spot due to the excess body cladding. The Aztek didn’t sell well, and it only contributed to the low point for the Pontiac brand. Interestingly enough, the Aztek became a sort of cultural phenomenon years later due to the popularity of the hit show, ‘Breaking Bad.’
