Riding in Style: Hollywood's Iconic Wheels - From Mustang to S-Class
- *
Luxury Vehicles as Unseen Leads in Box Office Hits - Cars, such as Mustangs and S-Classes, are surreptitious stars in Hollywood blockbusters.
In Tinseltown, automobiles play more roles than simply chauffeurs. The Ford Crown Victoria rules the roost as a Patrol Car in high-octane flicks like "Scream 5". The Ford Econoline totes equipment in "Jurassic World: Dominion", while the Toyota Land Cruiser powers across deserts in "The Covenant".
Luxury limos like the Lincoln Town Car ("Air") and the Mercedes S-Class ("Tenet") ooze opulence. The Dodge Charger roars through "Smile", the Cadillac Escalade sparkles in "Renfield". American icons like the Ford Mustang ("Fast X") and the Chevrolet Impala ("Ambulance") embody freedom and panache, while the Chevrolet Caprice in "Longlegs" embodies retro crime dramas. All these cars imbue films with personality and verve.
Our image gallery showcases the ten most remarkable models. The list is inspired by an analysis by AutoScout24. The vehicle sales portal has sifted through over 50,000 films from the past 25 years to pinpoint the top 10 most frequently used film cars. Surprising findings: Not luxury sports cars, but rugged classics reign - primarily American police cars, SUVs, and limousines have left their mark on cinematic history.
