Pointless & impractical vehicles

Suppose the extra weight over the rear wheel might help

The dimensions appear to suggest that the engine will clear the rider when (not if) he goes over the bars.

This leads me to propose a new SI unit, the Seevio. It is simply the ratio of Can:Should. Unfortunately, Sv is already taken so it must be Se.

I rate this vehicle at 2.1Se.

Who on Earth thought "I want a good looking coupe, but I'll make it ugly by putting four doors on it, and I also want it to be an off roader, but with no actual off road ability"?

Would they want cancer medicine that didn't cure cancer, or a hi fi that didn't play music...?

The 1965 Russian Volga Atom car, an atomic car.
Such a car could not be refueled for a very long time. Tests have shown that Volga Atom drives 60,000 kilometres without refueling.

Yep, pretty much my thoughts from the off.

I'll hold my hands up, I haven't been a BMW fan since the shark nose 635csi era, but irrespective it's possibly the most useless vehicle on sale, not fulfilling any criteria efficiently.

I can't even imagine you can get that big a volume of drugs in the boot, guessing the RR 'Sport' is the vehicle of choice for most there.
