Since I found no clue of a thread like this existing, I decided it would be nice to create one. Soooo, let's begin with the worst car names ever! Geely Rural Nanny like wtf Geely? Daihatsu Naked huh? Mitsubishi Minica Lettuce ik dumb name, but i find it kinda cute ngl Volkswagen Thing vw didn't even try. (please let me know if there is a thread like this)
did you know about the Isuzu "MU", or "MU-X"? did you know that the name stands for "mysterious utility"? well now you do.
it was called the brumby in australia, the place where coupe utilities are commonplace, yet they still didn't make a new version. i don't think the name is the problem.
The brat means brother in Serbian, which I find quite unusual as a car name. OT: Some examples: Although most of countries won't find Kuga name inappropriate, people from Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Slovenia will. In languages used in those countries, Kuga means plague. Why would someone buy a car whose name refers to some disease? Honestly, I don't know why Ford haven't put an Escape name for these markets.
Something similar. Malaga as most people know is a city in Spain and also a Seat car. Most people will find nothing wrong with it. Although in Greek a very close to the name curse word (malakas) means a-hole. The car was later named Gredos by Seat so it could be sold in Greece.
Mitsubishi Pajero, because "pajero" means coomer in spanish. Also the renault Kona, because "cona" (wich is pronounced the same) is a slang for vagina in galician, my language. --- Post updated --- Also "LaPuta" translates to "the bitch" in spanish. lmao
