I have heard this sooo many times that finally I said I have to check it out. I bet you haven’t, have you?According to Google, nova in Spanish means....wait for it...nova.
Yes, nova means nova, but no va means it doesn't go. It's a joke. For that matter, van means they go.
How do you know that? I usually associate L with long wheelbase but it does vary from brand to brand.
Mercedes started using the SL-class designation on 300SL in the 50's, which stood for Sport Leicht (translated, Sport Lightweight). It was a small, gull wing sports car. Modern SL's are two door touring cars. They are not mamoth, some are massively powerful, but they are not overly small or light weight either.
I KNEW it. That’s why I decided to Google the translation which translated nova to nova! It is amazing how people simply repeat what they have heard without ever questioning it.
1960s-1990s - Everything had a Brougham trim level. Then 1987-1992 - Cadillac Brougham.
Start going around the world, and you'll really start to see cross-pollination of model names. How about Dodge Caravan, Chevrolet Caravan, Nissan Caravan.
