Yugoslav-Made:
- YUGO: This iconic, affordable car was produced in Yugoslavia from 1980 to 1988, and was popular for its affordability and quirky styling. While it may not have been the most reliable vehicle, it captured the imaginations of many with its unusual name and low price point.
From the Land of the Rising Sun:
- YAMAHA: Yamaha, primarily known for its motorcycles and musical instruments, also made a foray into the car market with the Yamaha OX99-11. This sporty, mid-engine concept car was built in 1992 but sadly never reached production.
Other Notable Mentions:
