In 1958, the Subaru 360 was the brand-new model produced by the firm. It weighed a pitiful 965 pounds, earning it the nickname “The Ladybug.” Because of its low cost and small size, it was somewhat successful in Japan at the time.

Images of a Sumo wrestler stepping outside were used to market the compact car, suggesting that there is plenty of space inside. Ultimately, this car was labeled “the worst-selling car in America” and performed poorly elsewhere, earning the nicknames “cheap and ugly.” Subaru has completely changed since this 360, and it is now well-known for both its safety and design.
