MANY don't know their Fiat from the Seat – but how do you fare?<\/p>\n

Put your car knowledge to the test with this quiz on logos, body style and country of origin.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It comes after research of 2,000 adults revealed 77 per cent think MINI is a quintessentially British automotive manufacturer – despite it being owned by German company BMW Group since 1996.<\/p>\n

And although 40 per cent believe a car\u2019s country of origin is an important factor in their decision-making when buying or leasing a car, 65 per cent had no idea that Kia is owned by an Asian company.<\/p>\n

While many were unaware Polestar (87 per cent) or MG (88 per cent) also had an Asian parent company.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It also emerged that while 75 per cent were able to correctly identify the Tesla logo, just 38 per cent were able to do so for Polestar \u2013 despite being one of the top 10 best-selling electric vehicles (EVs) in the UK.<\/p>\n

Despite the lack of brand knowledge, 93 per cent know precisely what they want in their car with parking sensors and sat nav high on the list of requirements.<\/p>\n

And while 45 per cent want to go all-electric, 77 per cent believe an EV would be too expensive to get behind the wheel of.<\/p>\n

Alfonso Martinez, UK managing director at ALD Automotive LeasePlan UK, which commissioned the research and quiz, said: \u201cThere are a lot of misconceptions out there about automotive brands, so it\u2019s important to do your research to ensure you find the right one for you.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is particularly true when it comes to electric vehicles, where new and exciting brands are challenging conventional norms and bringing innovative solutions to UK drivers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is helping drive competition in the UK electric vehicle market, which will in turn will bring down the cost of driving an EV for consumers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The study also found 37 per cent of people looking for a new car would see items such as heated seats or a heated steering wheel as a must-have.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s not all about comfort as 36 per cent want to see enhanced safety features that land a five-star Euro NCAP rating before making their decision.<\/p>\n

The most popular type of car among those looking for a change was the humble hatchback (42 per cent), followed by a 4×4 or SUV (30 per cent).<\/p>\n

And after the summer we have experienced in the UK \u2013 unsurprisingly only 14 per cent would opt for a convertible.<\/p>\n

Of those who would consider going electric, the main driver for this would be to reduce air pollution (56 per cent).<\/p>\n

Nearly half (49 per cent) consider electric cars the \u2018future of driving\u2019, and for those seeking a more peaceful motoring experience, 36 per cent like how quiet they are to drive.<\/p>\n

It also emerged Tesla (61 per cent) is the brand most associated with electric vehicles, followed by Polestar (15 per cent), a subsidiary of Volvo.<\/p>\n

Third on the list was Nissan (14 per cent), with Toyota and Hyundai (13 per cent and 10 per cent) making up the top five, according to the\u00a0OnePoll.com\u00a0figures.<\/p>\n

Martinez added: \u201cThese research findings show that drivers know exactly what they want in a vehicle.<\/p>\n
