These Cars Are Thought To Be The Worst Of All Time

Horsey Horseless (1899)

It may seem unfair to say that early cars could be among the worst cars ever because they can’t compare to modern cars, but there are some that stand out as purely bad ideas in their own right. The 1899 Horsey Horseless is one of those early models. Its defining feature was a large fake horse head at the front. This was during the transition from horse-drawn buggies to cars, so the designer thought that it would help riders feel better about the change. He also recommended storing additional fuel in a hollowed-out version of the horse head, which just seems like a dangerous and ill-conceived plan anyway.
