About This Quiz

For some of you, only a high-quality luxury car could ever possibly match your personality. After we learn all about the way you approach the open road and car ownership, we will be able to tell if you are more of a Mercedes, a BMW or an Audi – or something else. All you have to do is race toward the results!

Since the 1940s, the Myers-Briggs personality test has been used by psychologists to determine which combination of letters fits individuals best. Because we live in a modern world, we think it only makes sense to compare you to something as modern as a car. Antiquated personality types and mass-produced toasters on wheels will simply not work for our quiz-takers! Instead, learning your distinct personality type can put you behind the wheel of the car of your dreams.

When you see the questions we ask, try to answer them with your truest responses. We want to make sure we pair you with the car you are truly most like, and your personality holds the key to the ignition. If you're ready to take a spin with us, we're ready to let you know what marvel of modern automotive technology you are really most like. Which one will it be?
