Hi I m wondering if you could provide me with synonyms of the italic words in this text?

As long as there have been cars, there have been weird cars — outlier designs too revolutionary or ridiculous for mass consumption. But today's automotive sideshows have their own flavor, as startups and established automakers alike try to both push the limits of fuel efficiency and create the perfect vehicle for the exploding number of urban drivers. We've scoured the world for the results of these efforts, and here our picks for the strangest cars of the new millennium; some are mere fancy, but others are already on the road.
