Based on Ford deciding to call their next small electric crossover a “Mustang”, I think it’d be fun to make up fictional concept cars designed to cause confusion…

Toyota; Prius Rudolf - a Prius with a detuned Diesel engine designed to “Roll Coal”

Ford; The New F-Series - a line of small subcompact electric city cars, the higher the number, the smaller the car, the F-450 is the size of the Peel P-50 microcar

Nucleon 2.0 - an updated, full sized version of their nuclear fission powered design prototype, a car with a nuclear reactor built by Ford, be afraid, be _VERY_ afraid

GM; Hummer H4 - GM enters the 50cc scooter market with a Vespa-styled scooter powered by a single cylinder 2 stroke diesel motor, yet it still gets 12 MPG

Dodge; Neon - a 12-cylinder hypercar that can do 0-60 in 1.3 seconds  
Tomahawk- they finally release the infamous V-10 Viper powered “carcycle” (this was an actual prototype vehicle)

VW; Schaudenfruede - an electric car powered by guilty conscience 😉  
420 - an electric microbus that has a tiny single cylinder “diesel” power generator for the batteries that runs on CBD Oil…

Your turn…

The Yugo GV 1.1- a stunning, state of the art luxury minivan with a Porsche derived flat 10 mid engine.
