List of fictional automobiles
This List of fictional automobiles contains either automobiles that are the subject of a notable work of fiction, or else automobiles that are important elements of a work of fiction. For the purpose of this list, an "automobile" is a self-propelled artificial vehicle that runs in contact with the ground and that can be steered. This would include passenger cars, trucks and busses. This list includes vehicles that the characters of the story would regard as being the products of technological development, as opposed to supernatural or magical forces.
Automobiles in fiction may closely resemble real-life counterparts with only minor or unintentional deviations from a real-life namesake; such vehicles may still play an important role in a story. Or, the limitations of real automobiles may be completely ignored for story purposes; in extreme cases, describing the automobile is the main point of the story.
