When Supercar Blondie asked MrBeast what his daily driver was, she was probably expecting something truly lavish with his $2.6 billion net worth – but his answer took her by surprise.
He’s the biggest YouTuber in the world, with a content empire that spans 494 million subscribers.
With all that influence, you’d be expecting a car that was top of the line with a price tag to match.
But that’s not how MrBeast rolls – and his reasoning behind his favorite car encapsulates him perfectly.
MrBeast’s daily driver isn’t what you’d expect
When you think of MrBeast, whose real name is James ‘Jimmy’ Donaldson, a lot of things will come to mind.
Perhaps first and foremost will be his habit of giving away big prizes in elaborate ways, whether that be a Lamborghini Gallardo or a Tesla Cybertruck.
This tendency would likely leave you thinking ‘Wow, if those are the cars he’s giving away, imagine the car he’s driving!’

You’d probably be expecting some one-of-one supercar with a staggering price tag.
But as Supercar Blondie, aka Alex Hirschi, was about to find out, this wasn’t the case.
The two Youtubers were chatting, when Hirschi decided to toss a few car questions his way.
“What’s your daily drive?” she asked.
“Right now, I’m driving a Tesla,” MrBeast replied.
“Honestly, any non-electric car […] it just feels archaic, to be honest.”

And what swayed MrBeast towards EVs? Their screens.
“When I’m chillin’, I love being able to watch YouTube on the big screen,” he explained.
“It feels so futuristic.”
“That’s the first time I’ve heard anyone say, ‘I love driving this car because I can watch YouTube’,” Hirschi commented.
“That’s such a Jimmy thing [to say].”
The car MrBeast would love to give away
The line of questioning took a more philosophical turn as Hirschi asked whether MrBeast would rather go five years into the future or five years into the past.
For him, it was a no-brainer – he’d go back in time.
And then there was the biggie.
She asked him what his dream car to give away would be.
This was bound to be a real headscratcher as he’s interacted with some seriously cool cars over the course of his YouTube career, like this $600,000 car that could transform into a plane.
But his choice was a $100 million Ferrari 125 S.
This was under one stipulation though – that he give to his friend who could sell it and give half of the money.
That’s an easy $50 million right there.
