15 Cars We Waited For That Never Arrived Cue Carly Simon and 'Anticipation' (Google It, Kids) The automotive industry is packed with creative individuals chock-full of ideas. It is also a sprawling, capital-intensive, international business that has to make money. Consequently, many creative ideas can never spread their wings and fly into full-scale production.
We've compiled 15 cars, trucks, and SUVs from the previous 15 years that were supposed to be roadworthy and in dealerships or available on Craigslist by now, if not in their presented form then very close to it. Key words: supposed to. Things don't always go according to plan. The past decade and a half has witnessed some of the best-intentioned product strategies deserted. Tons of new concept vehicles that theoretically hint at what's on the horizon debut each year. A bunch are blatant team-building exercises (Dodge Tomahawk, Mini and Smart scooters). Others are perpetual teases destined to live only on top 10 lists of concepts that should be built (Jeep pickup trucks, small, sporty Nissans). Some are ready for prime time with a swap of side mirrors and wheels and tires.
These 15 vehicles felt so close yet so far away. SEE THE COMPLETE LIST HERE | |
