In Germany, the carmaker the most valuable company, if you afmeet to market value. Do you want all of the VW shares to buy, then you need to 81.5 billion euros on the table.

Fun, frames! The German branch of consultancytoko PWC (Price Waterhouse Coopers) has recently been launched for all European listed companies at a glance (as of August 1, 2013), and made a German and European top 100 list of. In Germany scored VW as I said, a #1 position, followed by Daimler (6) and BMW (8). We look at the European variant, then the following manufacturers in the top 100 for:

#14 Volkswagen
#34 Daimler
#41 BMW
#81 Audi
#86 Rolls Royce
#100 Volvo

As you can see, BMW and Rolls-Royce pulled apart, and also Audi and Volkswagen are listed separately. I suspect that Volvo’s listing is because the researchers there is also the truckdivisie to have caught, and probably goes the same with Rolls Royce for the vliegtuigmotorendivisie.

I take at least not on that you with a few thousand car sales per year, 25 billion euros worth. Unless you’re Tesla is called. A company like Renault would you do for these brands expect.

Of the non-automotivebedrijven is Nestlé lijstaanvoerder (164,1 bln), Shell with 158,5 billion fourth, Unilever thirteenth (92,5 bln).

What certainly is interesting, if you have the data from five years ago when tackles. Rolls-Royce grew in market value from 8 to 25.6 billion; BMW came in 2008, also not in the list, and grew from 17.7 to 46.3 billion.
