(#1) Volugrafo Bimbo
Probably the most aggressively cute thing ever to leap from Saturday morning cartoons and into the bombed-out driveways of post-war Italian car buyers. It might look like a full-sized toy car, but manufacturer Volugrafo thought their Bimbo would get Italians moving again. They were wrong. But this car did make history for being the only cute, red-headed bimbo on Earth that couldn't get Italian men moving. -
(#2) Suzuki Every/Scrum Joypop Turbo
Compact, lightweight, mid-engine, turbocharged four-wheel-drive. Sounds like a recipe for a fantastic rally car, doesn't it? It probably would be, if the vehicle in question hadn't been the Every compact (kei) minivan. The standard model didn't come with a turbo, but for a few yen more buyers got both a blower and a Joypop badge on the fender. While the Every Joypop name is amusing, you have to wonder if Suzuki was scraping the bottom of the barrel when they later renamed this minivan the Scrum. -

(#5) Mazda Carol Me Lady
Maybe Mazda meant to call their special edition Carol hatchback "M'Lady." That would almost make sense. But this one - yeesh. Apart from winning a Tony for resembling a ballad from The Sound of Music, the Carol Me Lady goes home with additional honors for being the only car of all time whose name forms a complete sentence. Fact. -
(#7) Isuzu Mysterious Utility Wizard MU
Sold in different markets as the Honda Jazz and Isuzu Rodeo, this iconic little SUV is known as the MU in Japan. When asked why they apparently consulted dairy bovine to name their SUV, Isuzu said the title was an acronym that stood for "Mysterious Utility." Isuzu called it the MU Wizard for a while, before dropping the MU and leaving Wizard. But, during that period of time, it was the Isuzu Mysterious Utility Wizard Rodeo Moo-Cow. All right, it wasn't. But there is a distinct possibility that the MU (read as "Moo") really did inspire the Rodeo moniker. -

(#13) Master Rocket
Pakistan-based Master Motors assembles heavy-duty trucks and buses, the biggest of which is the Mitsubishi-designed Rocket. Fair enough. Though "Master Rocket" does sounds like a name that might come up if Marvel managed a crossover between Guardians of the Galaxy and 50 Shades of Grey.

(#14) Mitsubishi Delica Space Gear
Riddle for you: What would you have if video game hero Solid Snake were to drive from New York to L.A., along with a character from Cartoon Network's Adult Swim?
Give up?
Space Gear Coast to Coast. -
(#15) Chevrolet LUV
- General Motors, Chevrolet
-
(#17) Nissan Prairie Joy
Known as the Multi, Liberty, and Axxess in other markets, this compact minivan got the Prairie badge in its Japanese home market. Maybe they imagined it ferrying kids to soccer practice across the African Savannah. The standard Prairie came with two-row seating, but the Joy model got a third row, making it the Prairie Joy. -
