These Are the World’s Top 10 Most Instagrammed Cars
Which popular ride will reign supreme?
One might expect awe-inspiring supercars or eye-catching classic vehicles to dominate Instagram, but the most popular automobiles on the picture-sharing platform are much more attainable.
Quidco Discover, the comparison arm of leading UK cashback service Quidco, identified the 50 most mentioned makes and models on Instagram, and then tallied the three top hashtags for each during the month of May.
Only two supercars cracked the top 10—the Audi R8 at No. 8, and the Nissan GT-R at No. 6. Hot hatchbacks proved the most popular vehicle class, with the Ford Focus, Volkswagen Golf and Honda Civic notching the No. 10, 7 and 3 positions, respectively.
The Land Rover Range Rover was the lone SUV in the top 10, but it took second only to a surprising leader—the Audi RS6, a performance variant of the Audi A6 full-size sedan. See the complete top 10 list below:
10. Ford Focus – 1,428,000 Hashtags
