When car manufactures launch new models they?re obviously all hoping they are launching the next new best seller. And once in awhile that happens, like when Toyota launched their hybrid Prius or when the freshly designed Mini Cooper hit the market. But just as frequently new models flop and end up being a bit of an embarrassment to the car manufacturer and to car dealers alike.
One such car launched was the Renault Avantime which was billed as an MPV or luxury coupe but in effect was an Escape with fewer doors and was pulled less than a year after it was launched back in 2002. A car at the different end of the market is the Cadillac Escalade, a massive 4x4 which only 34 people purchased back in 2008. It might be both comfy and roomy and classy but for people wanting a 4x4 Land Rover seems to be their preferred choice.
A third car flop on the UK market was the Fiat Croma. It was a family car but the size was confusing and the consumer didn?t really know whether it was an estate, a hatch or an MPV and only 440 was sold in the UK in 2005. But also luxury car manufacturers? flop and the Mercedes Maybach 57/62 did just that with only one sold in the UK in 2008 as car buyers didn?t find it special or refined enough to part with their money for.
There are other examples too, like the Hummer H3 and the City Rover and they can probably all now be purchased really cheap at a local dealer somewhere. If you?re in the market for a used Mercedes-Benz, Crawley is one place you might find a reasonably priced Maybach 57 waiting.
