Weekend Entertainment/ Finding Car Names for the Name-Family Game; From Audi to Yaris

From Alfa Romeo and Benz to Zolfaghar and Ghazal, a guide to finding car names for every letter of the alphabet in the name-family game, even difficult letters such as «ث», «ذ», and «ظ». With this list, you can both raise your chances of winning and become familiar with lesser-known car brands and models.

If we were fond of name-family games in our childhood, adolescence, or youth, we probably remember that when we reached the "car name" column and were faced with letters like "Ж", "з" or "Ш", after staring at the ceiling for a few seconds, we would say to the opponent or opponents: "We don't have a name for the car from this word." Is it okay to leave it blank?" But this column is not so insoluble; From famous brands like Audi and Benz to models like Yaris and Qashqai, there are many options; Even for some hard letters.

Of course, if you want to make the game more professional, the story becomes even more interesting: in addition to passenger cars, military and armored vehicles, commercial vehicles, concept models and even special and one-off cars can also be accepted. In this case, letters that seem impossible at first glance, sometimes have an answer; From Zulfikar and Zafar to Talaiyeh, Sayad and Ghazal!

In some cases, it is even possible to get an answer by translating the name of a foreign car or brand in Farsi; For example, Heron MJ1 can be entered into the game with the Persian name "Havasil".

In this list, we have separated the car brands from the models so that in addition to helping to win the name and family, the general information of the car is a little more. Regarding the models, we have included the name of the manufacturing company in parentheses. Military vehicles are also specified separately.
