Find the car you meant

Search knows Unicode's names and search words, plus everyday ones. Cab finds both taxis, truck finds four tiles and chariot finds four. Van finds three, Minibus first. Suv finds Sport utility vehicle, whose character is still named recreational vehicle.

Old phones and missing fonts

Automobile, Taxi, Police car and the SUV date from Emoji 0.6, the oldest version. Pickup truck came in Emoji 13.0 and Wheel in 14.0, and an older phone shows an empty box for those. 車 and the one-line cars are ordinary text and take the colour of your words. The racing car sprites and the xiangqi chariots need a font that has them.

Tips
  • For car symbol copy and paste that takes the colour of your text, use ⛍, ⛐ or β›Ÿ: they are characters, not emoji.
  • A text style tile is the same emoji followed by a selector that asks for plain text. The font has the last say.
  • The steering wheel, the key and the speedometer are ASCII, 24 columns at most. In a font that is not monospaced, the rims bend.

Questions and answers

What is the car emoji called?

Automobile. Unicode's emoji list, version 18.0, has no emoji named car: six names hold the word, among them Racing car, Police car and Tram car. CLDR, Unicode's list of search words, files car under 16 emoji, the aerial tramway among them.

Is there a sports car emoji?

Not by that name. The nearest is Racing car, U+1F3CE, from Emoji 0.7: Unicode's note on the character reads race car, and CLDR lists zoom for it and for no other emoji. It has a text style, in the plain-text row.

Is there an electric car emoji?

No. CLDR lists electric for five emoji, and the only vehicle among them is Railway car. This page's workaround is the combo Electric car, near enough: Automobile followed by Electric plug. Search electric to find both.

Is there a truck emoji?

Three. Delivery truck dates from Emoji 0.6, Articulated lorry from 1.0 and Pickup truck from 13.0. CLDR lists truck for those and for Fire engine. β›Ÿ Black truck is the plain-text one: Unicode's notes call it black lorry and point to the delivery truck.

How this list was compiled: Built by script on 2026-09-20, not typed by hand. The emoji, their names, code points and Emoji version numbers come from emoji-test.txt, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt); names are the CLDR short names printed in that file, in sentence case. No emoji in that file is named car: the car is U+1F697, automobile, Emoji 0.6, in the group Travel & Places, subgroup transport-ground, between oncoming taxi and oncoming automobile. Six names hold the word car. The search words are from the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml and https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotationsDerived/en.xml, main branch). CLDR lists automobile, car, driving and vehicle for the automobile, car for 16 emoji, zoom for the racing car only, road for the motorway only, parking for the P button only, tire for the wheel only, truck for four emoji and electric for five, of which the only vehicle is the railway car. The text forms come from emoji-variation-sequences.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/emoji/emoji-variation-sequences.txt). Of the nine cars, three have a text form there: oncoming automobile, racing car and oncoming police car. Automobile has none. Every character that is not an emoji was checked against UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt), and a note that names a character uses its name from that file. The character names (RECREATIONAL VEHICLE for the SUV, RACING MOTORCYCLE, OCTAGONAL SIGN), the notes quoted for the racing car, the auto rickshaw, the fuel pump, the chains, the traffic signs, the helm symbol, the cart radical and the two xiangqi chariots, and the headings Traffic signs from ARIB STD B24 and Game sprites come from NamesList.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/NamesList.txt). None of the plain-text characters has a line in emoji-test.txt. The meanings of the Han characters are the kDefinition values of the Unihan database, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Unihan.zip); the readings of U+8ECA are its kMandarin and kJapaneseKun values, the simplified form is its kSimplifiedVariant and the radical of U+8F2A is its kRSUnicode value. The senses of the words come from Wiktionary, read on 2026-09-20: U+8ECA (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E8%BB%8A), U+6C7D U+8ECA (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E6%B1%BD%E8%BB%8A) and U+81EA U+52D5 U+8ECA (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E8%87%AA%E5%8B%95%E8%BB%8A). The description of the chariot hieroglyph is the kEH_Desc value of Unikemet.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Unikemet.txt). One of the 13 one-line pieces (U+006F U+0304 U+0361 U+2261 U+006F U+02DE U+0336) follows a pattern long passed around as anonymous text art, assembled here from character names. The other 12, the 3 ASCII drawings and the 14 combos are this site's own work. No make, model or brand is named or drawn. The Unicode and CLDR files were checked on 2026-09-19 and Wiktionary on 2026-09-20. Licence: own work, except one of the 13 one-line cars, which follows a long-standing anonymous text art pattern (named in the source note above)
