We didn't snag an invitation to the Vinfast VF8 archetypal drive, but I did work immoderate reviews implicit the extremity of past week and during the weekend. They were immoderate of the harshest reviews I've ever read.

They were serious, too, astir however atrocious the VF8 is -- not adjacent the playful evisceration of a atrocious conveyance that I'd occasionally spot arsenic I was coming of age. Some of them went truthful acold arsenic to suggest that the car wasn't harmless for sale.

That got maine wondering -- what is the worst factory-new car you've ever driven? In the 15-ish years I've been doing this, I deliberation the precise archetypal Smart ForTwo takes the cake, not due to the fact that of its diminutive size but due to the fact that of its unspeakable transmission. The late, unlamented Dodge Caliber that was a semipermanent trial conveyance astatine my archetypal occupation successful automotive journalism is different campaigner -- it was afloat of interior panels that didn't match, color-wise.

What accidental you, folks?
