Currently, five German companies and seven marques dominate the automotive industry in the country: Volkswagen AG (and subsidiaries Audi and Porsche), BMW AG, Daimler AG, Adam Opel AG and Ford-Werke GmbH.

These include Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, and Volkswagen. Here at German Specialists Ltd, we specialise in servicing, MOTs, ECU mapping, and repairs for German cars, so we use our expertise to guide you through these manufacturers in our latest blog below.

In short, German cars are reliable as long as you maintain them properly. Have a proper maintenance schedule, and they should last longer without any issues. Brands like Audi have good depreciation values, but contrarily, Mercedes Benz decreases in value.

Germany has a strong tradition of engineering education, which results in a highly skilled workforce that contributes to the country's automotive excellence. Engineers are trained to uphold the meticulous standards and technological innovation that German cars are known for.
