Aries: Sports Car
iStock / photosvitYou like to go fast, Aries. Playful and young at heart, you're looking for a car that gives you that feeling of freedom and fun. As a fire sign, you're used to commanding a room wherever you go—and you certainly know how to make an entrance. It's not just about showing off, though; you like to reward yourself after working as hard as you do in your career. So, it makes sense that the adventurous leader of the zodiac would drive a sports car that is fast, head-turning, and a true statement vehicle.
Taurus: Mid-Size SUV

However, you're not looking to settle for something subpar just because it might save you a couple bucks. You have all the patience to wait for just the right deal. For a functional vehicle that also appeals to your luxury taste, your best bet is a mid-size SUV that will grow with you. Whether you're single or looking to start a family, this multi-use vehicle has everything you could want and more.

Gemini: Classic Crossover
iStock / TraminoYou're always on the go, so you need a car that can keep up with your busy social schedule. As the sign of the twins, duality and flexibility are very important to you. Nothing frustrates you more than having to slow down and reassess your path forward; you'd rather zip ahead and figure it out as you go. You'll need a car that can do it all, like a crossover. With the frame of a regular sedan paired with the space of a larger vehicle, these cars tend to be more stable and easier to drive than a traditional SUV—truly the best of both worlds.
Cancer: Luxury Sedan

In both the boardroom and the domestic sphere, you're a natural leader who knows how to create a welcoming environment for everyone. Like most areas of life, you're looking for comfort and style when it comes to choosing a new vehicle. Ditch the mini-van the next time you hit the dealership, and instead, opt for a luxury sedan with plenty of leg room and all the latest amenities. You'll feel (almost) as cozy as you do in the comfort of your own home.

Virgo: Eco-Friendly Hybrid

Aquarius: Electric Car
iStock / pirankaYou're a bit of an oddball, Aquarius. Never content to stick to the status quo, you're more likely than anyone to question what you're being told.

A modern electric car is suited for all types of travel, and with usability and sustainability both a focus, you'll be sure to enjoy it for years to come.
Pisces: Retro Station Wagon
iStock / kai813You tend to be a pretty easygoing person, Pisces, so you're not interested in something showy.

As long as it drives smoothly and gets you where you're going (preferably the beach), you'll be happy with just about any ride. But the perfect car will also have plenty of room to fit all your friends and surfboards. A vintage station wagon checks all the boxes and embraces your nostalgic side. This is a ride that, like you, is one-of-a-kind.
