To compile these rankings, Confused.com took into account just over 200 of the most popular car models and counted the number of hashtags about each of them. This number was then divided by the number of worldwide sales to highlight the relationship between the shared images and the cars on the road. Note that some brands, which do not share this data, were excluded from the study. Instagram hashtag data for car brands is correct as of August 17, 2021.
