Jay Leno has the most googled car collection in the world, beating several celebrities including Cristiano Ronaldo and, interestingly, Bill Gates.
Jay Leno made his name (and his fortune) presenting a late-night show, but the 75-year-old star has been half-retired for a long time, and now most people know him for his YouTube channel about cars.
On the list of the most googled car collections, there are also two known gearheads and car collectors.
But you’ll never guess who else made the top 10.

What’s inside the car collection of Jay Leno
Jay Leno often talks about his cars on his own YouTube channel, Jay Leno’s Garage.
Leno either owns or has owned at least one vehicle from any and every car brand you can think of, perhaps with the only exception of Ferrari.
He owns a 1995 McLaren F1 (along with a P1 and a W1), 1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL, and a 1934 Duesenberg Walker Coupe.
He also has a one-off supercar he built with GM, and an ultra-rare Chrysler turbine vehicle.
His car collection is worth around $100 million.
You’ll never guess who makes the top 10
So we know that Jay Leno has the most googled car collection in the world, which is not shocking.
But what is at least in part surprising is who else makes the top 10.
The fact that Jeremy Clarkson, Rowan Atkinson and Lewis Hamilton are on the list isn’t surprising, because all three are known (among other things) for their involvement with the car world.
Then we have Kylie Jenner, Cristiano Ronaldo and Justin Bieber.
Those three are famous, and all three are very wealthy, so that figures.
What doesn’t figure is that Bill Gates and Elon Musk also make the list.
Even though he’s at the helm of a car company, Elon Musk doesn’t come across as a car guy, and as for Bill Gates, the ex-CEO of Microsoft has generally always kept a low profile when it comes to flashy things like cars.
Well, he did order a $645 million yacht he never took delivery of but we’ll gloss over that.
