Monster Autos: These Are The Ugliest Cars Ever Created

1990 Chevrolet Lumina APV

The 1990 Lumina APV had a unique and distinct design with a rounded body and spacious interior that offered plenty of headroom and legroom. In theory, the idea was a good one, until you saw the van in person. A V6 engine powered that produced up to 120 horsepower, which gave it decent performance for a minivan (via Autoblog).

Chrysler had a monopoly on the minivan market in the 1990s, and the APV was another attempt at capturing more market share. Unfortunately, consumers just couldn’t get over the Dustbuster styling of the van, and it wasn’t ever a sales success. There’s no denying that the GM Dustbuster vans were some of the ugliest cars of the 1990s.

1995 Oldsmobile Aurora

The Aurora had a long, sleek body with smooth lines and a low, wide grille. The interior featured leather seats, air conditioning, and power windows. The Aurora was powered by a V8 producing to 250 horsepower, making it decently fast for the time (via Cars).

The Aurora was a popular car for just a short period of time, however. It represented the height of GM luxury in the mid-1990s. The extremely aerodynamic design and the powerful V8 engine made it a pleasurable driving experience. But the styling of the first and second generation were ugly and the car didn’t last long as a result.

2004 Infiniti QX56

The QX56 had a bold and distinctive design with a high, boxy body and a chrome grille. The idea was to get styling that looked like the Hummer H2 from the same period. The QX56 had a V8 that gave it up to 315 horsepower, a solid amount of HP for an SUV (via Autoblog).

The QX56 was a popular car among families who needed a lot of space in their SUVs. But the problem with the QX56 was that many considered it a paltry clone of the Hummer H2, It had ugly styling and didn’t amount to much in the eyes of car shoppers as a result.

Pontiac Aztek

The legendary Aztek had a unique and polarizing design, with a high, boxy body and distinctive grille. The interior was equally impressive, with a spacious cabin and a dashboard filled with modern amenities, such as a premium sound system. The styling of the car is downright hideous, which is why it never became a success. The automotive press had a field day with the Aztec over the body cladding and ugly styling (via Car & Driver).

The Aztek was powered by a V6 engine producing up to 185 horsepower. It actually had a good enough performance on the road, but its styling was just horrible. There’s simply no debying that it is one of the most ridicilous-looking cars to hit a raod. However, not all is bad. The Aztek has become a cult classic among car enthusiasts in recent years. Surprisingly the car has become a big success on the secondary market due to is many scenes on the all-time great TV show ‘Breaking Bad’.
