BMW

The circular blue and white BMW logo or Roundel evolved from the circular Rapp Motorenwerke company logo. This is where the BMW company evolved from.

Mercedes Benz Logo

According to the Mercedes-Benz company, their logo represents the automaker’s drive toward universal motorization with its engines dominating the land, sea, and air (three points). This Mercedes-Benz emblem is a symbol of the company’s plan for world domination. Technical Director of Deutz, Gottlieb Daimler, designed it. He drew this badge on a postcard, which he mailed to his wife as far back as in 1872, vowing that one day this image would become the symbol of a car giant.
