Hyundai Veloster
The Hyundai Veloster is a compact hatchback made by Hyundai in South Korea from 2011 to 2022. Its weirdest quirk: It has one big door on the driver's side and two smaller doors on the passenger side. Hyundai flips the layout for right-hand-drive markets, so back-seat passengers always get out on the curb side.
A compact sporty hatchback that couldn't decide between two doors and four, so it went with three.
