It's All About Lotus Car

Did you know that many of the car manufactures are based not in the United States but rather in Europe? Prestiges car brands such as Bentley, Lamborghini and BMW all come from European countries. When cars first began to be made in the late eighteenth century, they were predominantly created in the U.S. As time went by many cars began coming out of Europe and today the European car brands dominate the entire car/truck market.
This is because European cars are superior to cars made in other parts of the world say many. Style, design and function of European cars far exceed other car models. That is why so many people are will to spend extra money to have a European car imported to their country. In terms of pop culture, European cars have been given a level of mystique which pushes the population to a point of wanting them over other brands. It’s not uncommon to see European cars used for racing and luxury vehicles in television and movies. This article will provide some information of some well known European cars in addition to listing other lesser known models.
Gottlieb Daimler and Karl Benz started Mercedes-Benz in 1880. Since then, this car brand has produced some of the best and fastest vans, luxury cars, buses, SUV’s, and trucks that have ever been made in the world. The Mercedes-Benz has become synonymous with wealth, class and social status. For this reason many replica cars have been designed throughout the years to resemble the Mercedes-Benz. In America many musicians and stars get a Mercedes-Benz as a way of telling others that they have made it in terms of success. The same goes for professionals such as doctors and lawyers.
Audi is Germany’s oldest-automobile manufacturer with over one hundred years in the business. They were also the first German car company to produce left hand drive cars. Today, left hand drive cars are commonly made by European car companies. Often cars are strictly made left hand drive by manufactures. This innovation alone has established Audi as a premier European car brand.
For the people who have the money and like speed, having a Porsche is the way to go. Often this car is associated with men going through a mid-life crisis because of its speed and cost. However not everyone who buys a Porsche is shallow with something to prove. What’s rarely discussed about the Porsche is its quality and endurance. New Porsche models can cost well over $80,000 while speeds average out at around the 190 mph mark. It is estimated that there are over one million Porsche’s on the road today.
Volvo is a Latin word which means “I roll. This eighty year old car company has been “rolling” out Volvo’s in the form of cars, trucks and construction equipment at a steady pace. In 2001, Volvo acquired Renault Trucks and the Mack Trucks companies and the Japanese truck manufacturer Nissan Diesel in 2007.
