How Well Do You Know Your Car Company Logos?

More than 10,000 people have taken this quiz. Less than 1 percent of them have picked all of the right logos the first time.

In the second quarter of this year, Ford sold more than 650,000 vehicles in the United States alone. That means there were nearly three quarters of a million chances for you to see a Ford logo while you walked your dog or strolled to a coffee shop. Factor in the millions of other vehicles Ford has sold over the decades and the number of times you’ve seen the Blue Oval logo gets a lot of zeroes behind it. But can you remember exactly what it looks like in fine detail? The site WhoCanFixMyCar.com was curious to see if its readers could recall how 20 popular car company logos look, so it devised a quiz for enthusiasts to take to test their automotive memories.

They put the correct version of a company’s logo next to a wrong, slightly altered version. Some of the right answers are immediately obvious. Some just seem that way. Then there are a few that make it clear you have no idea (we found the logos for the brands not sold here in the U.S. to be confusing). The automaker logos in the quiz are down below. You can either go through them and keep your own score or go here and officially take the quiz.

1.) Abarth

We hope you paid attention in your high school biology class.

2.) Aston Martin

Don’t think too hard about this one. Just wing it.

3.) BMW

Your gut instinct here may not be the best way to go.

4.) Ferrari

Both horses prance, but which one is heading the right way?

5.) Ford

A lesson in the importance of serifs.

6.) Honda

This one is all about the exact angle.

7.) Hyundai

If you squint at either one of these, you should be able to see two people shaking hands. Neither one of them will tell you which logo to pick, though.

8.) Jaguar

Both are good kitties, but only one is a good response.

9.) Jeep

Fill in the blanks: When you want to let the sun into a hardtop Jeep Wrangler, you take the ___ ___.

10.) KIA

This oval is red and can be just as hard to remember accurately as a certain blue one.

11.) Koenigsegg

Trust us – don’t be too clever for your own good on this one.

12.) Maserati

If you can’t nail this one, keep it to yourself. And feel ashamed.

13.) Mazda

This one makes us think of how we would draw a particular animal in motion when we were in elementary school.

14.) Peugeot

If we told you we knew this one right off the top of our heads, we’d be lion.

15.) Rolls-Royce

You feel that? That’s you – scratching your own head.

16.) Seat

Take a seat. No, not that one. That one!

17.) Tesla

Good luck with this one.

18.) Vauxhall

Go team!

19.) Volvo

This one has us thinking of Prince. That’s not a bad thing, though.

20.) Volkswagen

We’re sure you’ll be able to separate the right answer from the wrong one.

Derek Shiekhi

Derek Shiekhi's father raised him on cars. As a boy, Derek accompanied his dad as he bought classics such as post-WWII GM trucks and early Ford Mustang convertibles.

After loving cars for years and getting a bachelor's degree in Business Management, Derek decided to get an associate degree in journalism. His networking put him in contact with the editor of the Austin-American Statesman newspaper, who hired him to write freelance about automotive culture and events in Austin, Texas in 2013. One particular story led to him getting a certificate for learning the foundations of road racing.

While watching TV with his parents one fateful evening, he saw a commercial that changed his life. In it, Jeep touted the Wrangler as the Texas Auto Writers Association's "SUV of Texas." Derek knew he had to join the organization if he was going to advance as an automotive writer. He joined the Texas Auto Writers Association (TAWA) in 2014 and was fortunate to meet several nice people who connected him to the representatives of several automakers and the people who could give him access to press vehicles (the first one he ever got the keys to was a Lexus LX 570). He's now a regular at TAWA's two main events: the Texas Auto Roundup in the spring and the Texas Truck Rodeo in the fall.

Over the past several years, Derek has learned how to drive off-road in various four-wheel-drive SUVs (he even camped out for two nights in a Land Rover), and driven around various tracks in hot hatches, muscle cars, and exotics. Several of his pieces, including his article about the 2015 Ford F-150 being crowned TAWA's 2014 "Truck of Texas" and his review of the Alfa Romeo 4C Spider, have won awards in TAWA's annual Excellence in Craft Competition. Last year, his JK Forum profile of Wagonmaster, a business that restores Jeep Wagoneers, won prizes in TAWA’s signature writing contest and its pickup- and SUV-focused Texas Truck Invitational.

In addition to writing for a variety of Internet Brands sites, including JK Forum and Ford Truck Enthusiasts, Derek also contributes to other outlets. He started There Will Be Cars on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube to get even more automotive content out to fellow enthusiasts.
