MoneySupermarket Unveil Creative Interactive History of Car Brands

Cars have revolutionized the world over the past decade. We wouldn’t be where we are if it weren’t for all the different car companies developing new technology and pushing the boundaries of physics, speed and design. Over the years we have seen some pretty big milestones accomplished, but never have I come across a digital guide that starts in 1886 and highlights the entire track record until 2011. This isn’t only quality design, its superior functionality for the passionate car history lover.

The leading comparison site on the web MoneySupermarket has unveiled a new interactive site showcasing the history of car manufacturers detailing the most important dates in the history of the automobile industry. According to MoneySupermarket the unveiling of the interactive guide was planned to share dates with some of the biggest car manufacturing anniversaries of all time.

The car timeline details every vital car manufacturer launch, merger and purchase from the beginning of production in the late 1800’s to the present day and looks at the pioneering practices of some of the biggest and longest standing car manufacturing brands in history, including Ford, Toyota and General Motors. Over the course of 127 years, the interactive site details the remarkable growth of car manufacturing from the birth of the industry in 1886 to today’s automotive landscape of 39 major car manufacturers and over 90 key car brands.

2013 sees some of the biggest anniversaries in the history of motoring, including the 75th anniversary of the Type 1 Beetle, 50th anniversary of both Lamborghini and Mustang and the 30th anniversary of one of the world’s oldest manufacturer’s most famous car, the Peugeot 205. Therefore the launch of the interactive guide was planned to the T to share some of these great moments in history.

Claire Francis, Editor-in-Chief of MoneySupermarket, said: “2013 is a big year for the motoring industry, and what better way to celebrate by looking at the history of car manufacturing and seeing what it has become. The growth of the motoring industry including the insurance side is absolutely fascinating, and something we believe will continue to expand in the future. We wanted to make an easily accessible place for people to see the expansion and production of the motoring industry over the years, a bit like our insurance comparison model. It’s incredible how many mergers and purchases have been made by well-known car manufacturers.”

Now it’s time to have a look at the guide that was created and launched: A History of the Car Manufacturers

I hope you enjoy the creative guide as much as I did. I feel that there was some quality work hours put into making this guide and producing a quality product. Enjoy.
