Darn it.. missed one. Iran. Most people probably dont realize that Italy and Sweden don't even make the top 20 anymore. Production has shifted to cheaper areas.

+27

Level 81

Apr 8, 2014

I was going to say the same thing. Very hard to believe that Sweden (Volvo, Saab) and Italy (Fiat, Ferrari) produce fewer cars than Slovakia (?). Who'd have known?

+20

Level 76

Jun 5, 2014

Sweden's manufacturing has moved abroad with the sale of Volvo and I think Saab quit completely a year or two ago. Labour in Sweden is just too expensive. Ferrari is a luxury car, so they don't make that many of it. Not sure about what's behind Fiat..

Level 81

Jun 12, 2014

I got all of them this time but for some reason blanked on Korea until the last 30 seconds. I was surprised again to see Slovakia, having forgotten about this comment from two months ago. :P

Level 69

Jun 12, 2014

I only knew Slovakia because we learned about it in Geography a while back. A lot of car manufacturers started producing in Slovakia due to the cheap labour costs, as well as how close it is to countries that buy the most cars (e.g. Germany, France, UK) :)

Level 81

Sep 17, 2022

..and I know Ferrari doesn't make a lot of cars, but I've still seen far more of them on the road than I have of any Slovak brands. Also the point was more that Italy's car manufacturing is extremely well-known.

Level 30

Apr 25, 2024

well Slovakia doesnt have any brand. but Since 2007 Slovakia has been the world's largest producer of cars per capita. Peugeot Citroën's in Trnava, Kia Motors' in Žilina, Jaguar Land Rover in Nitra, and Volkswagen in Bratislava.

Level 45

Apr 26, 2024

And also Volvo in Valaliky (Košice) in the future.

Level 58

Apr 25, 2024

Ditto, missed Iran. With how quickly production numbers are shifting, Vietnam will soon be moving way up the list too.

I always miss Turkey, on EVERYTHING.

If you were American, you wouldn't miss it on Thanksgiving Day! ;)

Level 30

Sep 3, 2016

Or Christmas if you aren't

Level 61

Sep 13, 2016

Most Americans eat turkey at Christmas time, too. Even the Christmas Song says "A turkey and some mistletoe help to make the season bright."

Looks like someone really knows their bible!

For me it's Indonesia. I mentally go through the world countries, but somehow often miss Indonesia and Malaysia.

how dare u ;)

Level 70

Apr 3, 2018

Because Malaysia never seems to make a list unless it's "countries that begin with M"

Level 67

Apr 13, 2024

Or end in "laysia"

Level 80

Mar 25, 2020

@bezz I'm from Malaysia.

+12

Level 43

May 8, 2020

because Malaysia does a bit of everything, so its never really in the top. Unless you're talking about weird government systems.

Level 74

Apr 15, 2024

My personal rule of thumb on Jetpunk is that if a quiz is giving me trouble, guess Turkey. Even if it is a quiz about celebrities or mathematics, I figure it can't hurt of guess Turkey. And so often it turns out to be the missing answer.

Level 76

Jun 5, 2014

Already a second quiz on a row where I guess "Ukraine" and end up getting "UK". I don't understand how I can forget about UK though.

Level 59

Jun 12, 2014

The exact same thing happened to me haha

I like that the image shows a Chinese freeway, complete with accurate traffic congestion. Ah, China.

how did I not think to guess Canada? I live in Canada!

Level 54

Oct 17, 2014

Italy produces Lamborghini and Ferrari yet they don't make the list? where is Sweden?

Level 67

Oct 15, 2015

Lamborghini and Ferrari are produced is small quantity. Only Koenigsegg is produced in Sweden, Volvo and Saab are now produced in India and other parts of the world

Level 30

Sep 3, 2016

Sweden is a Scandinavian country above Denmark, bordering Norway and Finland.

Level 81

Nov 17, 2017

Italy is back on the list now but I'd guess less than 1% of their total number of cars are Ferraris and Lamborghinis.

Level 81

Nov 17, 2017

..... or maybe right around 1%. That would be 10,000 cars. Combined they might make that many in a year... depends on the year though.

Level 57

KJU says North Korea DEFINITELY no. 1, all needed to move rice production to happy people.

Non è possibile che in Italia si producano meno auto della... Argentina!

Fiat, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Di Risio...

Level 28

Jan 9, 2016

For those of you who don't know what he's saying, here you go:

It is not possible that in Italy you produce less cars ... Argentina! Fiat , Lancia , Alfa Romeo , Ferrari , Lamborghini , Di Risio ...

Level ∞

And now he's right! With the latest update, Italy is ahead of Argentina.

Somebody should tell him we only speak English on this site.

Level 91

Aug 30, 2016

If that was true, why do we have quizzes in other languages?

Level 27

Aug 30, 2016

Forgot India, Czech republic and Slovakia. Was about to do Slovakia but ran out of time. And I have no idea why, but I forgot India even existed.

Level 73

Apr 25, 2017

FIAT (which already included Alfa Romeo, Lancia and other luxury brands) in 2014 bought Chrysler (which had previously incorporated JEEP) creating the holding company FCA, currently the world’s seventh-largest auto maker.

So guys, it's not just about introducing FIAT 500 in the US...

Level 38

Jul 24, 2017

*Facepalms* DANGIT! Missed France!

My quiz is very similar! I name the country and you tell me the automotive company :)

Slovakia / Czech Republic never forget the stellar high priced YUGO!

Level 57

Feb 26, 2019

Zastava Yugo is a Serbian car, word Yugo is from Yugoslavia. I see that you are dumb, so I have to say that Yugoslavia doesn't exist. It's Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Slovenia now

Level 58

you should accept czechia for czech republic

Apr 16, 2018

I totally forgot czechoslovakia, stupid me.

Level 57

Feb 26, 2019

Yea you are, Czechoslovakia no longer exists. It's Czech Republic and Slovakia now

Level 52

Jun 23, 2019

Both are in the list so he's not

Level 90

Jul 21, 2018

If Czechoslovakia were still one country, it would make more cars than Canada.

Level 81

Feb 26, 2019

A bit surprising to me that Mexico produces so many cars and yet at the same time I don't think I've ever seen a Mexican car before in the USA and can't name a single brand.

Level 47

Feb 27, 2019

They are "American" brands that are made in Mexico. The brand name means nothing in the 21st century. "Mexican" beer is made in America and "American" cars are made in Mexico and every other combination.

Level 85

Jun 23, 2019

Yeah, I guessed it based on American brands being manufactured in Mexico primarily. Probably influenced by Trump's constant complaining about it. I mean, if Trump says it, it must be true...

Level 43

Nov 15, 2020

Not only American brands produce in Mexico. Also the european brands like vw and mercedes have big factories in Mexico for american market

Level 41

Jun 23, 2019

We actually beat South Korea...Don't saw for other countries though.

Level 68

Jun 15, 2021

Between Spain, UK, France, Germany, and Italy, it is a law of nature at this point that I forget at least one major European country.

Level 35

Jun 15, 2021

Missed Czech republic and Slovakia

Level 70

Jun 15, 2021

Easy ones to miss

Level 61

Oct 4, 2023

If it was a century ago, you would have only missed one country.

Level 67

Apr 25, 2024

Czechoslovakia existed until 1993.

Level 70

Jun 15, 2021

Somehow forgot to type France, missed Turkey and Indonesia

Level 59

Jun 15, 2021

Surprised USA beats Japan

Level 81

Sep 17, 2022

there are 300 million vehicles in the US. Almost one per person. Japan has fewer people and about half as many vehicles per capita.

Level 54

Apr 25, 2024

This quiz is about where the vehicles are produced, not where they are sold. Toyota alone sells almost as many cars as all US brands together, then theres Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Suzuki, Mitsubishi etc.

So yeah, to me it is very surprising that there are more cars produced in the US than in Japan.

Level 70

Jul 25, 2023

Auto industry is very export-oriented in Japan (as well as in South Korea), few plants from Japanese brands abroad. Labour costs are maintained low due to a high level of automation in the process.

Level 49

Sep 22, 2021

I honestly call cap on half these listings/order. Not against the quiz maker, but rather the countries that release said sources.

Level ∞

Apr 13, 2024

China's lead is insane and I have a feeling it's going to get a lot bigger. Some of the new Chinese EV's are going to obliterate the US/Europe market unless there are major tariffs. Chinese manufacturing is just so cheaper and more efficient.

Oh stop with the Sinophobic BS.

Damn, I knew Slovakia has the highest car production per capita but I didn't expect it to actually produce more than the UK XD.
