NAME and SHAME! WHICH All-new Vehicle MISSED The Mark Entirely In 2019?

As we wrap up 2019, and yet another decade, I feel like over the past couple months we've asked you to name drop the vehicles you've driven this year that completely surprised you. I know I have been surprised more than once in 2019.

But, now we're gonna turn that on its head a bit.

That's because we now want to know the all-new vehicle that completely missed the mark this year. Remember, it's got to be an all-new product that's new to market and something you've actually driven. No speculators allowed, folks!

I have some in mind but I don't want to give away my answers just yet.

So, Spies, you know what to do: Name and shame!

I nominate the Blazer.

It's the right name for a crossover, but the wrong look because they channeled the Camaro's style instead of Blazer style.

Why not go retro looking back to the K5 Blazer? That would have made it a hit.

Or why not call it a CamaroCross and amp up the Camaroness even more?

It's neither fish nor fowl.

The runner up for me is the Ranger. It looks good, seems good, and then you live with it and it's a gas hog from hell. The Ecoboost was the wrong engine. I actually think something like the old 3.7 would have gotten better MPG.

The Toyota Burpa. Why bring back a legendary car and phone it in?

Cadillac XT6. Next year it will be the CT5.

Taycan is kinda disappointing. Hard to believe Porsche will miss

Agree with Blazer and Arteon. Mazda CX5 Diesel as well. Terrific car but diesel was late to the game and had too big a premium.

I would say the Taycan from a technical perspective, although I think it will still be a commercial success.

I haven't driven any all new cars this year so I will only list from an outside perspective:
BMW Z4
BMW 8 Series Coupe/Gran Coupe
Mercedes GLE350 w/o adj suspension
Cadillac XT6
Audi Q3 (seriously ugly)
Honda Passport
Jeep Wrangler (major quality issues)
