Expensive car brands list

Of course, as a car enthusiast, it is nice if you can recognize the logos of these expensive cars and know a bit more about them. Below are a number of logos with interesting information.

Bugatti

The Bugatti logo consists of the initials of the brand's founder, Ettore Bugatti. Bugatti was born in Italy in 1881 and grew up in a family of artists. His father, Carlo, was known for his special furniture designs with Moorish influences. Ettore's younger brother Rembrandt was a professional animalier, or sculptor of animal sculptures. The Bugatti household also regularly hosted famous artists. So Ettore did not get his passion for entrepreneurship and art from a stranger.

Ettore graduated from the art academy, but discovered that his interest in technology was greater than his interest in art. In 1909, he therefore decided to start working as an independent car manufacturer. He designed and manufactured cars with flowing sculptures, which were completely in line with the artistic inclinations of the Bugatti family. Today, Bugatti is a renowned car brand that is mainly known for its fast, expensive and exclusive cars. There are fewer than 8.000 Bugattis worldwide.

Mercedes-Benz

Gottlieb Daimler, the founder of Mercedes-Benz, died in 1900. The car brand needed a new trademark. Sons Paul and Adolf were inspired by their father, choosing the constellation depicted on his house, which represented future prosperity for his growing company. Both a three-pointed star and a four-pointed star were registered as trademarks under the Daimler name.

The now famous three-pointed star still forms the logo of Mercedes today. This symbol symbolizes Daimler's original goal: to use engines to propel vehicles on air, land and sea. In 1916, the logo underwent minor changes. For example, the star was made silver and centered in a silver circle.

Ferrari

The rearing horse, or the “Cavallino Rampante”, is the Ferrari logo. This symbol exudes power, unbridled strength and speed. The story behind this logo is almost as legendary as the car manufacturer itself. Co-founder Enzo Ferrari experienced a special victory on the Savio circuit. Here he met Count and Countess Enrico and Paolina Baracca, parents of an Italian fighter pilot who has since died. They had arrived in a plane with an image of a rearing horse on it and said that this symbol would bring good luck. Ferrari chose to use this symbol for his company. The symbol on the logo was supplemented with the brand name and the flag of his home country.
