The Daimler Company Limited was founded by Wilhelm Maybach and Gottlieb Daimler. The duo was a pioneer in the development of automotive technology and internal combustion engine. The company was founded in 1890. There was another company named Daimler Motor Company Limited which was founded in 1910 by H.J. Lawson in London and he got the permission from Gottlieb to use this name.
Daimler was given the Royal Warranty Award in 1902 to provide cars to the British Monarch. The company lost this nobility after the hype of Rolls Royce. Daimler cars were seen in a Bremen Exhibition by Frederick Richard Simms in 1889. Richard saw small railcars and got inspired to make the company big and this is when he introduced the Daimler company in England in 1890.
The slogan of Daimler is “The Best of Nothing”.
Daimler is owned by Mercedes Benz Group.
The first car manufactured by Daimler was Daimler Motorized Carriage.
