The logo you see in every car has one story or another behind it.
Hello horsepower herd it's here with my first Post in this community hope I'm welcome. I'm here to give about 32 fact about car logo.
Let's begin.
- There are no Tesla logo anywhere on Cybertruck
- The horse on the Porsche logo is the symbol of Stuttgart where Ferdinand Porsche is from. However, Ferrari's prancing pony is also a symbol of Stuttgart. Well this is what happened. An Italian Ace pilot from world war 1 by name Francesco (pronounced Franchesco) Baaracca painted the Stuttgart horse on his plane after shooting down a rival pilot from Stuttgart. That's a sign of respect. Years later. Baraka's mother approached Ferrari's owner Enzo Ferrari and suggested that he should put the horse on his racing car for good luck he did and he won.
- These Ferrari badges first appeared on racing Alpha Romeo's model. As Enzo was their race driver and letter their team principal. 13 years later the logo approach on the first Ferrari car.
Porsches uses stickers on their GT3 cars instead of badges to reduce weight.
KIA is the only auto maker that uses a different logo for their home models.
- when KIA First showed up their cars it confused a lot of people to think it was KN
Aston Martin we are also worried about their weight of their cars so on Aston Martin valkyrie they try to reduce weight but not with stickers as they would embarrass the car for his for its price so the use chemical edged film made of titanium that is about 30% thinner than a human hair and 99.4% lighter than regular Aston Martin badge.
Aston Martin's badges are still made by hand with real metal. It is made with such quality that even in a thousand years when the car rust away the badge still remain.
- The Toyota logo is not just 3 overs that form the letter T you can also use it to spell Toyota.

- Ford logo is the signature of Henry Ford with some modification.
- Alpha Romeo has a photo of a snake eating a man. It is a symbol of Milan where Alpha Romeo is from. But being disturbing, they said it is the birth of a man. Well we've all been to school and learnt that this is not how we are born.
- I don't know if you want to hear this but Renault logo is... a Vagina. Well that's what they said, Renault themselves.
- BMW logo is not a propeller. I know they built airplane engines and made these ad
but according to BMW automobile historian they are some Bavarian colors a black circle.
- The full meaning of BMW is Bayerische Motoren Werke which means Bavarian Motor Works (why didn't they just name it that).
- The pointed part of the Porsche logo is always opposite the valve on the wheel. So now you know when your tires are made in someone's backyard.

- The snake logo at the back of the Dodge Viper also serves as the third brake light.
- Elon Musk wanted his cars to be pronounced SEXY when put together but Model E was Ford's trademark so it was then replaced with Model 3.
- Porsche 911 should have been called 901. It was even presented as 901 in 1963 but Peugeot protested that three digits with zero in the middle was kind of their thing.
- Tesla logo is not just the letter T but a cross section of an electric motor, although Tesla confirmed that was a Kitty's nose.

- Lexus sporty brand is normally named F for Fast and Fuji Speedway where they performance brand are developed.
- Hyundai sports brand has the name N for Nüburgring.
