    Looks like a BMW X6 that was slaughtered, then was made into a Frankenstein of a Maybach and some rice.

    Now 50% better than single-dimensional luxury!

    Comfortable compared to what? A beater Festiva?

    1. I guess that would refer as a 2D form.
    2. Likely compared to the early days of SUVs.

    1. I was pointing out the marketing babbleness.
    2. I'm pretty sure a Wagoneer would be more comfortable.


    On the topic of unintentionally funny car names, here is the Chrysler Valiant Charger White Knight Special.

    What's even funnier is it's model name. Definitely looks like a courageous charger.....
    /s
    OT:

    The name of this kei car is the Toyota MEGA Pixis.

    Not sure if I would agree, Toyota...

    FCA should bring this edition back as a Challenger and advertise it with a slogan "White Knight Special - for when you really need to run over that SJW protest!"

    It should also be on the new Chargers as well, with it's own slogan, "Runs like a Hellcat, but is strong as a knight!"
    OT:

    Toyota, this isn't a huge car. That's reserved for semis like the Kodiak or DuraStar.

    (bump)

    "Ultimate Luxury"
    You might wanna reconsider the name, Mercedes-Maybach.

    It's a concept with a placeholder.

    I know it's a concept... but I'd call it the "Mercedes-Maybach Luxury Sedan-SUV Concept" just because it looks like a luxury SUV but reshaped to have a sedan body shape.
    Also, the most luxurious SUV MB has offered as of now is the GLE (which looks moderately better than this concept car).

    1. Your name does not have the same charm.
    2. TIL the GLS and G-Class do not exist.

    1. I did it just for irony, as the original model name sounds a bit "gimmicky"
    2. I mean out of all those SUVs, the GLE takes the place. (You also forgot the GLC)

    The GLE is not the most luxurious. Just do a bit of damn research.

    Anyways...

    Sunroq sounds almost like a inside joke to the vehicle it's based off (Karoq) and the word "Sunroof".

    Sweet jiminy Jesus Christ do you two argue a lot.
    In my personal recommendation I would think that both of Ya'll stop.
    Edit: I'm late, I know, but still.
    This name applies to something else but still: (wont show image because everyone knows of this car)
    Volkswagen Jetta, because "jet" (without the ta) and Volkswagen don't mix.
