Here Are the 11 Weirdest New Cars on Sale Today 

The happiest days of Doug's life, ranked: 1. The day he married his wife 2. The day he got Noodle 3. The day he found whoever does his Photoshop thumbnails and animations

The V90 was a total surprise for me on this list as a European, as it's probably one of the best selling large sized wagon here. You see them everywhere.

Ok Doug, you have an international audience. When you talk the market you mean the US auto market. Volvo station wagons are NOT weird in Europe. The US SUV's are not popular in Europe because of steep taxes (based on weight) and are sometimes difficult to navigate and park on European streets. So for Volvo, VW, etc. to have production lines for station wagons and sedans is not weird at all. They are just not aimed at the US market. Just spilling some of them to a few customers in the US may make sense to them.

The V90 was a big surprise for me as a swede. The Volvo V90 is one of the most common cars on swedish roads. I think the V70 still has the upper hand, but not for long. However I really enjoyed this video

Doug: there are still weird cars The weird cars: Volvo station wagon.

Doug: The standard Volvo v90 is strange Meanwhile in Scandinavia: hey that's our neighbors car

The V90 is AWESOME man! It drives awesome and I think it looks sick. They're all over Europe and everyone loves em. Beats the hell out of an A6.

"All two-door SUVs failied" Doug needs to review the Lada Niva

Here in Germany, the Arteon isn’t weird at all. They are everywhere The V90 Wagon is super common aswell

The Volvo V90 is primarily made for the European market, where sedans are more rare than wagons

7:12 Doug almost dropped the F bomb lol

"The Hyundai Santa Cruz is a weird car..." Ozzies and Kiwis: "What? It's a Ute."

“No one wants a two door suv” Oh Doug, did you forget about the the legendary Jimny?

“You Either Die A Hero, Or You Live Long Enough To See Yourself Become The Villain” -Subaru Outback

You know, it occurred to me while watching this that the Avalon TRD doesn't make sense in the U.S (or even the euro market) but it absolutely makes sense for japan. In japan people put race wheels on kei trucks, bodykits on their crossovers, etc. I think we lose track of what car culture really is in japan because of how big the drift scene is, but if you go on google maps, you're way more likely to come across a lowered kei van with aftermarket wheels and a crazy racing bumpercover and rear spoiler, than you are a drift car. The Avalon TRD fits in nicely with that culture of "I want my car to be cool and personalized but I don't really care if it's fast, I'm not racing it". I'd be willing to bet money that that car was designed with solely japan in mind, and just happened to end up going to other markets too.

I love when Doug takes a $hit on someone’s favorite car.

This video just proves that manufacturers don't make weird cars anymore.

In this video: Doug lists normal cars popular in other countries.

Doug forgot that people from Europe watches his videos too, didn't he? 😅

Btw, in Europe the Arteon is doing pretty well, built like a tank with thousands of safety and comfort features is a pretty amazing car. Not to mention styling is also pretty good!

Doug's graphic guy is trying to one up himself or herself every Sunday.

"No 2 door SUV'S are ever successful..." - Suzuki Jimny enters the chat

9:24 That was hilarious when you added Operah Whinfery "You get an AMG".

7:35 i literally had the add of this car played 1 seconds before you sad this lol

Just realized that experiment you did with camera 2 at a 45 degree didn’t return, and I’m glad. I like my Doug coming directly at me.

I'd like to see when Doug finds out that VW makes their t-roc a convertible!

What you should realize is: These so called "weird cars" are ONLY according to his POV And you have to remember that Doug Demuro is a weird guy who likes weird stuff

The New York Times (in a recent article): "“Compared to how crazy the stuff is that’s happening in the tech world of cars, it’s bizarre how much they all look the same,” said Doug DeMuro, who hosts an excellent car review RU-vid channel."

Dougs so wholesome, no gimmicks no weird shit just a cool quirky dude who likes cars

"station wagons are kinda dead, as everybody knows.." said no one ever in Europe

The OB Wilderness makes more sense when you look at the absolute explosion of aftermarket off-roading demand/supply for Subarus in the past 5-7 years. Still a hilarious full circle situation, no doubt. 😂

"The Jetta does well" Tell me you're in North America without telling me you're in north america.

How many people wish they could order any car they wanted, walk into a dealership and order a 1969 Firebird or a 1996 Impala or even a 1987 F150, 1978 Ram Charger, just whatever you want in any model year

Doug still hasn’t remembered the More Doug Demuro password.

That 2-door Defender looks amazing

Doug: Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat weird Me: Wait they make a Jeep Hellcat? I would say that's more weird than the Durango. Mainly because I never knew it existed lol

Alternate title: Doug Demuro calls 11 cars weird

*Draws us in with a clickbait picture of an actually weird six-wheeled pickup.* "Everyone says there are no weird cars any more, but they're wrong." *Shows us 11 cars that meet all the criteria for normal cars. Some have more horsepower than expected. Some have rear-opening doors.* "No one really thinks of any of these cars as weird, but just trust me, they are weird."

6:38 - "eventually every two-door SUV in history has failed without exception . . . EXCEPT . . . "

I can't say I agree with Doug's definition of weird. The V90 and Arteon especially. It's unusual to see them in the US because those body styles aren't as popular anymore, but they're literally just conventional cars. Off-trend does not a weird car make.

I just bought the Outback Wilderness. It’s a car Subaru fans wanted. They’re already taking them off-road, lifting, installing beefy tires, etc. The car handles amazing, looks great, turns heads, and is insanely capable for going off the beaten path while keeping the wagon intact. I have no doubt the Wilderness editions will have solid resale value like every other Subaru special edition vehicle. Very very pleased.

If I got $1.00 every time Doug says "Cars and Bids" and "Aaaaand", I would be able to afford all these cars no problem.

Lol, I owned a 2012 CC. It was actually a pretty decent car. I bought it with $32k miles for ~$10k about 4 years. I ended up taking it across country and it was great for that. It also definitely had some weird quirks, like the fact that it's only 4 seats with, even though it is a 4-door and has space for a middle seat.

I'd say that with the Arteon Volkwagen has grown more luxurious in Europe. They are extremely common, same with the V90...

I’m having a hard time understanding how a hellcat Durango is weird or unnecessary when Porsche,bmw and just about every European suv manufacturer makes a performance SUV’s Its one of my favorite suvs out today

I really like two door suvs. Specially now that the wrangler has the bronco and defender equivalents. If I had the money I wouldn't hesitate.

Never thought I'd see a click bait video from Doug. Time has changed.

The next car we are looking to buy will be the Camry TRD.

Doug's hand movements are so fast that my PC had to downgrade its resolution to compensate for it

Imagine doug finding out they even sell arteon "shooting brake" in europe

It's interesting because VW's cars in the US are actually.highly mainstream where as they exact same car models in Europe actually are quite luxurious. Look it up, vw trims down their Arteon and passat for the American market.

The Avalons and Camrys look great I reckon ..an AWD version with a bit more power would be an awesome car I reckon. Being an Aussie I'm a sucker for most fast/fastish done up sedans.

Doug moves his hands so violently you can tell what he’s saying even on mute

Doug didn’t even mention the weirdest part about the MX-30. It’s a hybrid electric car and the gas generator is a Rotary!

I daily drove a 1987 subaru brat for 7 years starting in *2009*, crossed the country with it 5 times round trip(NC to WA), 4 round trips from Washington to Alaska. Now I have a 2011 vw jetta sportwagen tdi, which feels like a luxury rocketship from outer space compared to the brat.

I get that you only chose weird cars from established brands, but I'd like to throw the XBUS into the ring. A tiny electric VW T3 with modular backs (even a version with a TIPPING BED!), a SOLAR ROOF for extended range and TANK TURN as an option. It is so weird and insane I'd really like to own one.

Where I live the normal V90 is probably the most common new car. I live in Sweden

one of these times he’ll start with “THISSS is NOT more doug demuro, and i HAVE forgotten the password”

If we wish for success in life, it’s essential we commit to making that wish become a reality. The key to success in life is to go from interest to commitment to taking action from personal power.

I had a dream about the Santa Cruz in the thumbnail The whole thing was basically an ad that you would see on tv

Ever since the GLA 45 came out, they were selling them at MSRP or charging markups (at least in CA). It's a grown-up hot hatch and it's quite fast. They don't make many of them in the first place so no inventory overstacking which means they don't have to really discount them to get them out of the showroom. And the older generation GLA 45 holds its value really well in its respective segment. So it's actually a desirable car but often overlooked.

After insulting us with click bait, Doug argues they still make weird cars today, then shows 11 cars that are not weird...certainly not Fiat Multipla weird anyway.

American Volvo V90 driver here. Though Volvo always maintained that the non-CC V90 was special order only, a Jalopnik article a few years back alerted me to the fact that there were in fact some V90s that were making it East Coast dealerships and sitting on lots. A found a few on Autotrader, bought a V90 T5 Inscription through my local dealership in the Midwest, and haven't looked back (except to marvel how good it looks when parked). I'm no hardcore Volvo wagon fanatic. I just wanted a special, beautiful car with presence, a fantastic interior, plenty of space, and efficiency that a SUV cannot match. Did I mention it's a beautiful car? This model looks long, low, and stunningly handsome without being jacked up an inch or two and the tacked-on plastic of the Cross Country. People that don't know what it is remark that it's a great-looking vehicle, and once a month, someone who knows EXACTLY what it is (a Doug Demuro subscriber maybe) will excitedly approach and ask how I got it. And... of course... Volvo recently announced they'd stop sending them to the USA. Makes my wagon rarer, but I'm sad others won't get to enjoy owning this model.

What’s really weird is this video isn’t on more Doug

I think the Santa Cruz is going to surprise everyone and sell like hotcakes. In 5 years most manufacturers will be making one also. Basically different bodies on their cuv, they already make them but with closed boxes.

I bought a CT6 after seeing a Doug review only to hear him say only a funeral direct buys the CT6. That was a huge blow to this account’s heart.

"Station Wagons are kind of dead as everybody knows", Germany:" Hold my beer"!😅. Never again without a station wagon, I just love them!

Was surprised to find out that the right hand drive Wrangler is classified as weird. I have one and it looks just like every other Wrangler here in Australia!! 😎

The thing with this list is so many of these cars aren't here, are going away, or are unavailable. The i3, V90, and Avalon TRD have already been confirmed to be discontinued at the end of 2021. The Avalon itself will be killed after 2022. The right-hand-drive Wrangler is basically non-existent. The Mazda is not even on sale yet assuming it comes here. The Durango SRT Hellcat had a production run of 6 months which was spoken for almost immediately and is gone after 2021. That's 6 of the 11 cars.

These cars all make so much more sense outside of the USA 😂

funny because I bought a loaded 21 Arteon about 3 weeks ago and I LOVE it, styling inside and out and that its uncommon to see a fastback sedan especially from VW.. I see people looking at it all the time because no one knows what it is since they don't sell and VW oddly doesn't market it

Doug needs a history lesson in Defender 90s - a non-failed utility vehicle, perhaps not an SUV in previous models, but far from failed ... outside of the US.

Why is the V90 strange? Isn’t it in the same class as an E-class, 5-series, Audi A6, etc??

Funny how Doug's laughs are so outta place. He laughs even though no joke was said. His laugh is a quirky feature of Doug.

Weird cars in the past: odd design, odd interior, differently misplaced instruments, unusual utility, unusual style, extremely ugly. Weird cars now: lol big grill, wow big engine, um... luxurious wanna be car..., um... higher than average ground clearence.

Great list. I always thought the i3 looked like a concept car they forgot to redesign before it got released. And I always kinda wondered about those mail truck jeeps

None of these cars were particularly weird, the Santa Cruz was the “weirdest” but it is just a small truck based on a crossover. What about the Veloster, they still make it, it is basically an Elantra GT but with 3 doors.

Having high horsepower in a regular car isn't enough to make it "weird" at least in my eyes.

2 years later and I actually see a lot of the Santa Cruz’ around

I see the Arteon regurarly in Germany and honestly, I think it's hot af. The only coupe/sedan I'd ever get since I'm more of a wagon type.

For me as a German it is absolutely absurd that the Arteon and the V90 Wagon are called weird. Over here they are pretty much as normal as it gets. Especially the V90 is just a Wagon. Everybody here wants a wagon so of course they sell like crazy over here. SUVs are still kind of considered to be unnecessary unless you want to go off-roading.

Doug: ALL 2-door suv's failed. Ever. Suzuki Samurai/Jimny: Am I a joke to you?

Guess I'm just a "weird car guy", as I would gladly have the Land Rover, AMG, Arteon and Volvo Wagon. I always liked the VW CC, especially in V12 livery. A very cool weird in my book!

Doug the type of guy to make a video on "weirdest cars" and fill half the list with weird trims

The Santa Cruz is a segment for small-mid size pick ups. Here in Argentina they are quite famous, you have the Fiat Toro, Renault Oroch, the Maverick will come soon and so on. Basically mid size SUVs such as the Ranger are too expensive, so these are cheaper options for lifetime city oriented drivers. So, in our market, it's not that weird TBH

Fun fact: The Arteon is also sold as a shooting brake and there's an R version for both the sedan and the shooting brake version

I love my weird i3. Constantly getting people saying “what the heck is that?” And turning heads in Iowa. Especially when driving through rural areas.

it’s always refreshing to see dog demuro

I don't understand Doug's confusion or negativity about the Santa Cruz. It's basically a smaller Ridgeline. The Baja partially failed because the width of its bed was a limiting factor if I recall. The Santa Cruz can fit tall objects a small SUV can't, 4' wide materials a Baja can't, and can tow most reasonably sized recreational vehicles.

What's dead is the affordable sports car. Fords attempt to make an affordable hot hatch it was not as affordable as they would like to think.

I see Doug finally put some chapters in this video :D

I know this video has been out for a month but im just now watching it AND I saw one of those Jeeps with the right hand drive today!! Talk about wierd!

Doug is the daddest looking 33 year old I ever seen

Just purchased a Wrangler. Earlier in the summer when supplies were, the Wrangler pickings were VERY slim. However, in Mid July we found two dealers in the Chattanooga area that had Wranglers in stock. The hitch: they were right hand drive Wranglers. We passed.

International Scout is also one of my favorite all time cars.

Doug: all 2 door suv have failed Suzuki Jimny: am I a joke for you?

Is it just me or did I see a 6 wheel pickup and thought " That will be interesting"

Hi Doug, Here in the Uk we get the Jeep Wrangler, right hand drive, it’s not strange, it’s normal 😃

One of those Doug's videos that makes you REALLY wonder when will the *screaming chimp* sound bit pop out..

Subscribed! You finally won me over, AND you made me realize that I am a closet weird car lover too.
