30 concept cars that never hit the mainstream

Lamborghini Miura

The Miura was in production between 1966 and 1973, making it possibly the world’s first supercar. In 2006, a modern Miura concept car was unveiled at the North American Auto Show in Detroit. But the concept vehicle was only an homage for the 40th anniversary of the supercar, and was never intended for production.

Chevrolet Aerovette

Originating in the 1960s, disagreements over the practicality of this heavy, gas-guzzling, Corvette-like sports car culminated in delays in the Aerovette’s production. It was finally looking like it would enter into commercial production in 1980, but due to the energy crisis at the time, the plan was scrapped.
