Amazing reviews weren’t enough to keep the Porsche Macan from being returned by 7 percent of buyers within the first year.
Much like sports cars, luxury cars like the Porsche Macan significantly drop their value after the first twelve months. On top of that, the Macan’s good looks and sharp style aren’t enough to keep owners interested.
Dodge Challenger
A fun muscle car with great speed, the Dodge Challenger, doesn't try to be pretentious. With nine different models of the Challenger available, from the SXT to the Hellcat Redeye Widebody, this car is definitely a powerful piece of machinery.
Once a racing king, the Challenger has since fallen back from the spotlight, with nearly 7 percent of buyers returning them after a year of having purchased them. The exorbitant maintenance costs don't help, either.
Explorer Sport Trac
When Ford wanted to make a compact pickup truck, they chose to take an SUV and turn it into a truck by adding a flatbed in the back. Simply taking the Explorer's cargo and putting it in a small bed instead isn't that much of a good idea. Instead of copying an existing model, it would have been much better if the automaker had designed a new model from the ground up.
Ford’s Explorer Sport Trac lacks a lot of the quality that you'd find in some of the auto maker's better pickups, and it also costs quite a bit of money. It's not surprising people started returning it within the first year.
Nissan Armada
The V8 Armada has been deemed one of the “worst fuel-efficient in mid-sized/large SUV” category, with 14 MPG for the city and 19 for the highway. While it does compete well against other SUVs in its class, the severe fuel consumption and lackluster infotainment systems put it slightly behind.
Car and Driver gave this one a 3.5 out of 5. Another review had buyers rushing to return this behemoth of a vehicle within the first year.
Nissan Versa Note
Nissan is known for being one of the most trusted car makers in the world. Its Versa Note model is not only beautiful but also a better version than their Versa sedan. The Note has a lot of attractive features, such as it being relatively affordable and reliable.
Unfortunately, there are many other automakers that offer a higher number of features for a better price and a more enjoyable driving experience. So, nearly 10 percent of its buyers end up ditching the Note within their first year.
