Are you freakin' kidding me? The Cadillac CTS, Cadillac DTS, and Dodge Charger are some of the best car chase vehicles there are! And though the GAZ 3110 Volga may sound bad in writing, it sure kicked some ass with Jason Bourne behind the wheel!
The only cars worthy of being on the list are Chevrolet Astra, Renault 9 and Dodge Caravan.

I do not really see why the Astra or R9 could be considered as "worst" either
What is the meaning of that poll actually? Bad choice for a car chase or the fact that the car used in the chase is a bad car, even if well chosen?

He probably means worst "hero car" used for a car chase. But I agree most of the ones listed are not a bad car.
The Dodge Caravan is not bad as a vehicle, it’s a urban family vehicle and the chase it was used in was meant to be comical, not serious, which is also evident given the dialogue between Mr. & Ms. Smith during the chase. Though, having said that, I prefer serious car chases.
The Cadillac CTS used in the Matrix sequel was a flat-out good serious car chase, I would never consider it as a bad lead car.

Car chases using more "common" cars are also maybe more realistic (like the one with the Astra or the Caravan), though that a car chase is maybe not so realistic due to the fact that it does not often happen in real life... I think

You obviously have never watched the 6 o'clock Los Angeles news
There's a high speed pursuit nearly every day.

Worst car in a chase? There can be only one. I cannot remember the movie, but it's a Polish one, posted by Weasel. With a Polski Fiat 126!
Sorry, folks, nothing can beat this.

Hmm there must be some other "bad" chases.
e.g. this parking enforcer vehicle chased by two guys... running:
