Nigerians don鈥檛 really care about car names and models. We just call them whatever we like. Check out these hilariously Nigerian names for cars we hear everyday.
Big daddy or Big for nothing (Toyota Camry)
This is just an unfair name because it鈥檚 giving 鈥淪egun GTBank鈥 caller ID vibes, and there鈥檚 absolutely nothing wrong with the car.
Evil spirit (Honda Accord 2011/2012)
Nigerians got this one right. A car can鈥檛 look this sexy without a sprinkle of . Such a befitting name, if we鈥檙e being honest.
End of discussion (Honda Accord 2003/2005)
This was the first car version of 鈥渄rops mic鈥. Maybe it鈥檚 old-fashioned now, but you鈥檇 turn heads if you drove this to a party back in the days.
Discussion continues (Honda Accord 2006 – 2010)
The end-of-discussion vehicle realised it still had much more to say. So Nigerians had to invent 鈥淒iscussion continues鈥.
Ijapa (Volkswagen Type 1)
Not only does this bad boy look like a tortoise, it moves like one too. We don鈥檛 need to say much more. It鈥檚 hard to believe this car made you a baller once upon a time in Nigeria.
Pencil (Toyota Camry 1999)
You鈥檇 think this car got its name from its shape. Nope. It鈥檚 the headlights. Apparently, the car was launched at a time when people were obsessed with headlights.
Muscle (Toyota Camry 2007)
This is what you get when Pencil puts on some weight (or 鈥済oes to the gym鈥). Nigerians saw the result and christened it 鈥淐amry Muscle鈥. Such creativity!
Regular (The 1980 Mercedes Benz 200)
The name is a little misleading with this one. Not only is this car giving October 1st, 1960, but you were a baller if you owned it back in the 80鈥檚 too. It was the ultimate status symbol.
鈥淧ijoh鈥 鈥 pronounced pee-joe (Peugeot Pick-up)
This vehicle would carry Nigeria鈥檚 problems if you allow it.
