The vehicle that Homer designs is called "The Homer" in the TV series The Simpsons. It is a strange and unconventional car that features some unique and impractical features such as a bubble dome for soundproofing, a stove, a separate compartment for the driver's children, multiple horns that play "La Cucaracha," and a built-in drinking fountain. The car was designed by Homer to fulfill the requirements of his half-brother Herb Powell's business, and it became a financial disaster for him.
