2000 Pontiac Aztek
Not a lot changed with the Pontiac Aztek. The company learned its lesson and wanted to roll the dice with this anticipated car. However, the problem lies in the niche target market. This car was aimed at outdoors enthusiasts who liked to go camping. It was designed to make it easy for one to spend some time in the woods. However, it did not perform quite as well on the freeway.
1997 Pontiac Rageous
We would like to give this company a break but let us not forget about the Rageous. From its design to its name, there was nothing admirable about it. It was built like a Firebird but got turned into an odd hatchback car with a drop-down tailgate. A Pontiac employee even said, “It provoked the [deleted word] out of upper management. When Pontiac comes out of the closet, we really come out.”
