History

 

Mercedes has its roots back in 1886 with the invention of the internal combustion engine. After being one of the first to produce a petrol-powered vehicle, Karl Benz went on to produce the first four-wheel petrol car in 1891.

Benz then started ‘Benz & Cie’ in 1900 and became the largest automaker in the world.

A merger that took place following the First World War would see the manufacturer become ‘Mercedes-Benz’ – the brand we know today.

BMW came around a little later, launching in 1916 as a manufacturer of aircraft engines. It wasn’t until 1928 that the brand become an automobile manufacturer.

The first vehicles that BMW manufactured were a product of its purchase of Fahrzeugfabrik Eisnach, rebadging its Dixi cars as BMWs before expanding further into sports and luxury vehicles throughout the 1930s.
