About This Quiz

Without a doubt, this quiz will test your auto knowledge to the fullest! Have you got what it takes to work out which vehicle is a Chevrolet and which is a GMC?

It's not that simple as these two makers are brothers-in-arms, stablemates if you will. Many of the models from Chevrolet and GMC are built on the exact same platforms provided by their parent company, the General Motors Corporation. So be sure to take your time with this one and use every bit of car knowledge you have mastered over the years to identify the correct model in the image. 

Chevrolet is one of the oldest car brands in America and the marque was established in 1911 by William C. Durant and a Swiss racing driver, Louis Chevrolet. The famous bowtie emblem soon followed. But the GMC marque has just as much legacy with the first GMC trucks appearing from 1912 onwards. There certainly is a lot of history here. You can almost taste it, along with the smell of oil, gas and rubber.

So what are you waiting for? Will you be one of only 21 people who are able to ace this quiz? That's only 4.7 percent of the people who take this quiz that get 100 percent correct. But you can do it!
