Oldsmobile Bravada

The Bravada was one of the least remembered SUVs that General Motors ever built, but it was also one of the most influential. The Bravada was the first compact luxury SUV ever sold by a domestic automaker. Long before the Escalade and the Navigator, there was the Bravada (via Cars).

It had interesting features such as the Smart-Trac traction system and a completely upscale interior. Although the Bravada was based on the utilitarian Blazer and Jimmy models, you’d never tell by the outside.
