3. BMW (Bavarian Motor Works) was founded in 1917 by
Franz Josef Popp.
After the end of World War I in 1918, BMW was the
aircraft engine producer.
The BMW Group is now one of the ten largest car
manufacturers in the world with its BMW, MINI and
Rolls-Royce brands.
The BMW Group is the only manufacturer of
automobiles and motorcycles worldwide that
concentrates entirely on premium standards and
outstanding quality for all its brands and across all
relevant segments.
4. AUDI AG is able to look back on an exciting and varied past â It all began with August
Horch, one of Germany's pioneering personalities automobile engineers.
He set up business on his own in 1899, establishing Horch & Cie. Motorwagen Werke
in Cologne on November 14 of that year. Horch moved to Saxony in 1902, first to
Reichenbach then in 1904 to Zwickau, where the company was transformed into
a joint-stock corporation.
Following differences of opinion with the Board of Management and Supervisory
Board, August Horch left the company in 1909 and immediately established a
second car company in Zwickau. Because his surname was already in use and was
protected by trademark, he chose its Latin translation for the new company. So
"horch!" â or "hark" â became "audi!". Audi Automobilwerke GmbH itself became
a joint-stock company in December 1914.
The Audi brand established a tradition of sporting achievement from the very outset.
Thanks to his victorious involvement in the Austrian Alpine Runs between 1911
and 1914, August Horch succeeded in making Audi internationally known within
just a few years. After the First World War August Horch withdrew from the
company and moved to Berlin to work as an independent automotive expert.
