It’s no secret that cars are a big deal in the world. Nearly every country has its own unique car brand, and the top companies are constantly competing for market share. But which company is the king of them all? It depends on who you ask—and how you define “king.” For example, here at CarBuzz, we think Stellantis is in a league of its own when it comes to luxury vehicles. And in terms of volume sold worldwide? That would have to be General Motors! Still not sure what makes these companies so special? Let us break it down for you:
Mercedes
Mercedes is the oldest car company in the world, having been established in 1883 by Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler. It’s also the most popular car brand in the world with over 3 million cars sold annually across its range of vehicles. Mercedes-Benz has a wide range of vehicles including passenger cars (including sedans), trucks, vans and buses; sports cars; SUVs; mini-vehicles like Smart ForTwo city cars; as well as commercial vehicle types such as Sprinter vans or Metris cargo vans. Mercedes’ headquarters are located in Stuttgart while they have factories all over Europe including Germany itself where they produce around 1 million units per annum at six different locations while also exporting them from here too!
Honda
Honda is a Japanese car manufacturer founded in 1948. It is the world’s largest motorcycle manufacturer, and it holds second place in global automobile production. Honda also manufactures engines for other companies such as Subaru, General Motors and Isuzu. The company has its headquarters in Tokyo and operates nine other manufacturing facilities across Japan.
Stellantis
Stellantis has been around for over 50 years, and it’s safe to say that their cars are just as old. They’ve had some major ups and downs throughout the decades, but they continue to produce affordable vehicles that are popular among consumers worldwide. Stellantis has a wide range of cars, from sports cars to family cars, so there’s something for everyone! While most people don’t think about Stellantis when they buy their first new car (or even their tenth), this company still dominates the world market share in South Africa and China.
Hyundai
Hyundai is a South Korean company that was founded in 1967. It has grown to become the second largest car company in the world, with over 1 million employees and annual sales of $60 billion USD. Hyundai has been recognized as one of Fortune’s World’s Most Admired Companies since 2007, ranking first among auto manufacturers every year since then. Hyundai produces cars at its own factories across Asia and Europe; they also operate joint ventures with other companies such as Kia Motors Corporation (South Korea), Dongfeng Motor Group Co Ltd (China), Tata Motors Ltd (India).
General Motors
General Motors (GM) is the second largest car manufacturer in the world. It has a portfolio of brands including Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC. The company also owns Australian brand Holden. In addition to producing cars, GM produces trucks and buses under its own name as well as for other companies such as Toyota and Volkswagen. In 2018 General Motors had revenues of $149 billion dollars making it one of America’s largest corporations by revenue alone despite not being part of any stock exchange index or S&P 500 groupings like other automotive giants Chrysler or Ford Motor Company are! General Motors was founded during 1908 when William Durant purchased Flint Wagon Works from Ransom E Colcord who then went on to form Chevrolet Motor Car Company with Louis Chevrolet later becoming its vice president before leaving due to disagreements over advertising policies which led him forming another company called Frontenac Motor Corporation but without much success since most buyers preferred buying cars made by larger manufacturers such as Ford so after six months closed down operations permanently rather than running at a loss every month trying sell cars nobody wanted – luckily though there was still demand amongst farmers looking replace horses used farm work so new tractor models started popping up everywhere soon becoming popular among those seeking more efficient ways manage land while reducing costs per acre worked per year – this trend continued until 1920s when mass production techniques allowed prices drop dramatically so anyone could afford owning one which resulted huge increase demand especially among farmers needing reliable transportation means haul crops away market places located far away from where these farms were located –
BMW
BMW is a German automobile, motorcycle and engine manufacturing company founded in 1916. BMW produces motorcycles under BMW Motorrad and MINI produces cars under the MINI brand. BMW also manufactures engines and chassis components for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, as well as being licensed to produce many models of Mercedes-Benz cars including the current GLA, A Class (W176), B Class (W245), C Class (C204) compact car range plus several others including Vans and SUVs such as X1/X3/X5/X6 etcetera..
The world of cars is a big one, and it’s not hard to see why. If you have ever dreamed of owning your own car or truck, then there are plenty of options out there for you. These 6 companies offer some of the best vehicles on the market today and will continue producing new ones in years to come.
