About This Quiz
There have been literally hundreds of car makers around the world over the last century and a half. Some, like Ford, Honda and Volkswagen, have come to dominate the industry and are sold everywhere, while others like McLaren and Lancia have a smaller piece of the pie. But whether you're selling one million cars in a year or one hundred, you want to have a good logo so people can easily identify your work. Just think of that black horse on the yellow background emblazoned on every Ferrari that you can easily pick out from across the street. Even the simple blue oval a Ford or that golden bow tie from a Chevy lets you know immediately what you're looking at and who made it.
Some car companies like to go all out with their logos and cram in as much crazy stuff as possible, like the mishmashed shields from the Porsche logo, or the cross and the snake used by Alfa Romeo. Honda and Hyundai chose to both use a stylized "H," while Jaguar went about as literal as a company possibly could by using a lunging jaguar. Creative or plain, complex or simple, let's see just how many car company logos you can identify!
