   V=0 tell me the 10 ugliest cars

   "Ugliest" is inherently subjective, but some cars appear again and again on "worst-looking" lists because of awkward proportions, controversial styling, or unusual design choices. Here's a widely recognized top 10:

   1. Pontiac Aztek

      • Often considered the poster child for unattractive automotive design.
      • Cluttered front end, bulky body, and mismatched angles.

   2. Fiat Multipla

      • Famous for its two-tier front end with headlights mounted above the hood.
      • Practical interior, but highly polarizing appearance.

   3. Nissan Cube

      • Box-shaped profile with an asymmetrical rear window.
      • Cult following despite its unconventional styling.

   4. SsangYong Rodius

      • Frequently criticized for its awkward rear design.
      • Designed to maximize interior space over aesthetics.

   5. AMC Pacer

      • Nicknamed "the fishbowl" because of its enormous glass area.
      • Looked futuristic in the 1970s but aged oddly.

   6. Chrysler PT Cruiser

      • Retro styling divided opinion from day one.
      • Loved by some, mocked by many.

   7. BMW 7 Series

      • Its controversial "Bangle Butt" trunk sparked years of debate.
      • Mechanically advanced despite the styling criticism.

   8. Tesla Cybertruck

      • Sharp, geometric stainless-steel design.
      • Some see it as futuristic; others see it as one of the strangest-looking vehicles ever made.

   9. Subaru Tribeca

      • Distinctive front grille was widely criticized.
      • Subaru quickly redesigned the nose.

   10. Reliant Robin

   • Tall, narrow proportions and a single front wheel made it visually unusual.
   • Became famous through comedy and TV appearances.

   If the ranking were based purely on how often these cars are ridiculed by automotive journalists and enthusiasts, the order would likely be:

   1. Pontiac Aztek
   2. Fiat Multipla
   3. SsangYong Rodius
   4. Subaru Tribeca (2006–2007)
   5. Chrysler PT Cruiser
   6. AMC Pacer
   7. BMW 7 Series (E65)
   8. Nissan Cube
   9. Tesla Cybertruck
   10. Reliant Robin

   Many of these vehicles have since developed cult followings, showing that unconventional styling can become appreciated over time.
