None. I don't have one and do not want one. They are a blight. I want them gone.
Terrible that you're being downvoted for this while, currently, the top upvoted comment is someone boasting about having two cars.
I was kind of expecting it. The question is "What car do you drive?" and not "If you have a car, what's the one you're driving?" because it's to be expected that everyone has or wants a car. So those without cars are not being asked, and saying you don't have one is "not the question". Worse if you don't like them. I'd bet that saying I don't have one but wish I had a specific one would have gained more sympathy.
As a North American that doesn't like cars, I'm just used to that type of reaction. A car is status and prestige. A car defines who you are. If you don't have a car, you're not normal.
I'm happy for you. I drive an electric scooter to work and my husband by bicycle. We have a car but only for longer trips. I hope car sharing becomes more accessible where I live, because I don't need to have my own car if I only use it occasionally
