How do I win?
You have to answer as many questions correctly, as quickly as you can, to rack up your points.
That said, don't have to come first to win a prize. You don't even have to come first to win a car. There’ll be a whole mix of rounds so even if you feel like you’re falling behind, stick around and see what comes next – you might be pleasantly surprised at how quickly your fortune could change. There are three electric vehicles up for grab on the night: • Super Soco TSX 50cc Electric Bike • Vauxhall Corsa Electric Anniversary Edition • Vauxhall Mokka Electric The bike will be won at the end of round three, the overall winner and recipient of the Mokka Electric will be declared at the end of the quiz and you’ll need to stay tuned to see at which point in the quiz the Corsa Electric will be won 😉. We’ll also be giving away 10 prizes at the end of each round to the players who are ranked in certain positions (e.g. 1, 100, 250, 1000, 3000, 5000) – so you don’t have to be winning to get a prize! And that’s not all. For every question you answer correctly, you get a ‘lucky dip token’. Each token gives you one chance at winning one of 100 additional electric prizes. Winners will be picked out at random at the end of the quiz – so stay on until the very end and answer every question.

Will my picture or video appear in the quiz?
No, the only information that will appear to other players is your player name.
How is the winner chosen?
The player with the most right answers in the quickest time is the overall winner.
Other prizes will be allocated throughout the night – so you don’t have to be winning to get a prize, you just have to be taking part!

How does the time bonus work?
Each question has a time limit - the quicker you answer, the bigger your time bonus will be. It’s worth noting that when there’s more time available to answer a question, the bigger the time bonus will be if you answer quickly.
What is 'rank'?
Your rank is worked out based on the number of correct answers you have and your time bonus. The player with the most right answers in the quickest time is the overall winner.
How will I know I’ve won?
The overall winner of the quiz will be announced at the end. We’ll check in on the leader board as we go.
There will be a number of prizes awarded to specific places at the end of each round – so you don’t have to be winning the quiz to get a prize. Just try and answer every question as you do. At the end of the quiz, the Top 10 places will appear on your device, and the second car winner will be announced by the presenters in a lucky dip. Other lucky dip prizes will be awarded after the show and we’ll get in touch with all winners as soon as possible after the quiz to let you know what you’ve won.

How will you send my prize to me?
We’ll get in touch to discuss how to get your prize to you, so make sure you give us your correct contact details. We won’t use these details for anything other than contacting winners
Can I choose which prize I win?
Prizes are allocated so you can’t choose. Don’t worry though, there’s some amazing free stuff up for grabs.
Do I need to know anything about cars to play the quiz?
Nope, this quiz is for everyone and there are a number of rounds on a variety of subjects. That said, some fun facts on electric cars may feature - so do your homework here!
Do I have to answer every question to win a prize?
You don't need to answer every question to win the prizes, but to help us win the Guinness World Record, you need to answer every question - so if you don't know, just guess!
I've already registered - does this let me join the quiz automatically?
No - you still need to turn up on time on Tuesday, 15th Nov. The first 50,000 players to join the quiz will be allowed in. If you’ve pre-registered, we’ll send you a link to the quiz first.
I haven't pre-registered, can I still join the quiz?
Yes. Turn up at 7pm (or just before!) and if there are seats available, you can join the quiz. Look for a link on our electric car hub, or on our social channels.
Can I join the quiz late?
If there is room, you can, but you won't be contributing to the Guinness World Record attempt ☹
Avoid disappointment by joining bang on 7pm.

How do you use my data?
If you do not tick the opt-in for marketing preference, we will only contact you if you are a winner. A list of usernames will be shared with Guinness World Records to verify the total number of players in our World Record Attempt (names and addresses will not be shared with anyone).
Why do you ask for my mobile number and email address?
If you are a winner, we will need to contact you to get your prize to you. If you mis-type your contact info, we won't be able to get you your prize. By asking for both your mobile and your email, it gives us a second chance to contact you if there is an error in one.
