Ten Car Companies That Lost Their Way In 2012
By Raphael Orlove

With cars getting fatter, uglier, and more detached with every new generation, it's easy to say which carmaker hasn't lost its way, but Jalopnik readers know ten brands that stand out for losing their **** this year.
Welcome back to Answers of the Day — our daily Jalopnik feature where we take the best ten responses from the previous day's Question of the Day and shine it up to show off. It's by you and for you, the Jalopnik readers. Enjoy!
It's not always easy to figure out if a company is off the rails. Most decisions in car companies are made behind closed doors, and thanks to the time it takes to develop tooling for a new car, to produce a new line of vehicles in a factory, and to ship them out to customers, we don't even see the ramifications of executive's decisions until years after the fact.
Still, this year there have been some painfully clear mistakes made in the auto industry, with some companies failing to move forward while their competitors make strong advances, as well as other companies that took steps backwards all on their own.
