Car enthusiasts are naturally meticulous and picky about their preferences, so shopping for them during the holiday season can be a challenge. I know from experience because I’m one of those people.
If you don’t have the know-how or the funds to gift them the rare and expensive cars or parts they dream of, there are still a ton of cool and useful gifts any car lover will appreciate. To make shopping for the car enthusiasts on your list easier, I rounded up 32 clever gift ideas they’ll be happy to receive.
Most of these items are available with two-day shipping, so don’t stress too hard about your last-minute shopping — just remember that the sooner you order, the better your chances of a timely arrival.

A wooden gift crate filled with auto-care products
Man Crates
Man Crates Auto Care Crate, available at Man Crates, $ 99.99
Man Crates has a huge selection of gifts for men, and the Auto Car Crate is the perfect choice for the car-loving guy on your list. Instead of giving him a delicately wrapped gift with a bow on top, he’ll need to use the included crowbar to pry open the crate. Inside, you’ll find Chemical Guys Honeydew Snow Foam Auto Wash, a Chemical Guys Ultimate Fire Hose Car Wash Nozzle, a scratch-free chenille wash mitt, three professional grade microfiber towels, and a collapsible bucket.
An Alexa-enabled car charger
Amazon
Roav Viva by Anker with Amazon Alexa, available at Amazon, $ 49.99
Most people enjoy using Alexa in their homes, but the Roav Viva by Anker now makes it possible to bring it on the road. Simply plug it in the 12-volt adapter and gain voice-controlled access to music, directions, audiobooks, and more. It also provides two USB high speed charging ports for your devices.
A smartphone mount
Amazon
iOttie Easy One Touch 4 Phone Mount, available at Amazon $ 24.95
Car lovers would much rather spend their money on cool parts and accessories than pay a hefty fine for using a phone while driving. Giving them the iOttie Easy One Touch 4 is like giving the gift of safety. It can be mounted to the dash or windshield, and is compatible with all smartphones.
