The foundation for our approach here is the Daimler sustainable business strategy adopted by the Board of Management in 2019. E page 52 ff With this strategy, the company assumes responsibility for the economic, ecological, and social impact of its business activities, not only at its manufacturing locations but also with regard to the entire upstream and downstream value chain.

    Ready to be different “At Daimler, we don’t just build the best cars – we also offer the best models that enable individual solutions for the perfect balance between our professional and our private lives. The world we live and work in is undergoing unprecedented change. Creativity, flexibility and responsiveness are the top skills going forward into the future. We are working hard to create a culture fostering and enabling these competencies. A culture in which new ideas can florish – to shape the future of mobility for customers around the globe.” Wilfried Porth Member of the Board of Management of Daimler AG, Human Resources and Director of Labor Relations, IT & Mercedes-Benz Vans 10 Diversity is what drives us Imagine the following scene: An Italian, an Ethiopian, a Turk, a Chinese lady and a few Swabians meet... Jokes actually begin like this, but in our manufacturing plants this is how the early shift begins. And even if the scene might seem a bit contrived, you can actually encounter this at Daimler. We were one of the first companies in our industry to firmly establish Diversity Management in our strategy back in 2005. We don’t just tolerate diversity, we strive for it: About 289,000 people from 160 countries work side-by-side at Daimler. Our understanding of diversity includes much more than country of origin: In our plants you are just as likely to meet a designer in a wheelchair, a refugee doing a bridge internship and a transgender colleague from vehicle development, as a 16 year-old apprentice or a 60 year-old quality manager.

  • 1961 Daimler SP 250 Sports Fibreglass Bodied 2 Seater with 2½ Litre V8 Engine
    1961 Daimler SP 250 Sports Fibreglass bodied 2 seater with 2½ litre V8 engine This car dates from April 1961 and was originally sold in Wolverhampton. From 1974 to 1989 it was owned by the well-known Daimler specialist David Manners. It was then bought by the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust, and came to the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust in 1991. It was later refurbished in the original colour of Mountain Blue, although with red trim rather than grey, with the assistance of Jaguar's Special Vehicle Operations Department. By the late 1950s, the Daimler Company was in trouble. A confused model policy had led to dwindling sales. There was not much money available to invest in much-needed new models. However, a brace of new all-aluminium V8 engines, of 2½ litres and 4½ litres, designed by Edward Turner, were under development. The question was - in what cars should these engines be fitted? After trying to adapt a Vauxhall body for a new saloon, Daimler decided to launch the smaller of the new engines in a sports car, conceived with the American market in mind. The new car was in every respect a departure from traditional Daimler practice. The chassis was inspired by the Triumph TR3A, and the strikingly styled body was made from fibreglass. The new model was launched at the New York Motor Show in April 1959 and was at first called the Daimler Dart – until the Chrysler Corporation protested that they had this name registered for a Dodge, and Daimler was obliged to change their new model's name to SP 250.

  • Steve Campbell-Wright
    Steve Campbell-Wright Imperial Echoes: one company’s exploitation of cultural identity in marketing cars before the Great War To buy a car before the Great War of 1914–18 showed that the owner was a person of means, be it old money, new money or borrowed money. The running costs alone of an average car could keep a small, working-class family in a degree of comfort. In 1910, a seven horsepower, single-cylinder Austin, complete with body, cost £1501; while at the other end of the scale, a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost began at £985 for the chassis alone2—the equivalent in 2016 Australian terms of over $200,000. Within the ranks of the relatively wealthy, the investment placed in a car indicated much about the owner. According to Bill Boddy, a former editor of British magazine Motor Sport, ‘the wealthy bought Rolls-Royces, the aristocracy bought Daimlers.’3 One Australian firm, Dalgety and Company, held the exclusive rights to sales of Daimler cars before the war, and the company’s approach to marketing indicates much about Australian society and its reflection of the class structure at ‘home’ in Britain. Social identity was a rich marketing vein to be tapped when the conditions were right. This paper examines the marketing style and approach of Dalgety and Company in the years before the Great War, with particular reference to its sales of Daimler cars. It asks whether such marketing—as a construct within social behaviour—indicated and reinforced the social stratification of Edwardian Britain in Australia. 1| AHA 2016 Conference Proceedings Steve Campbell-Wright Imperial Echoes: one company’s exploitation of cultural identity in marketing cars before the Great War The Daimler Motor Company Limited was the first British car manufacturer, having been incorporated in 1896.4 The company’s first cars were German-made Daimler cars imported from Cannstatt, Germany; and their first Coventry-made vehicles were manufactured under licence using Gottlieb Daimler’s designs and patents.

  • Daimler One-O-Four DF310 Overview
    Daimler One-O-Four DF310 Overview Origins of the name Daimler Confusingly, the name Daimler is used by two completely separate groups of car manufacturers. The history of both companies can be traced back to the German engineer Gottlieb Daimler who built the first cars in 1889. This was the origin of the Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft, which is translated as Daimler Motor Company, which has manufactured vehicles since the 1890s. Gottlieb Daimler died in 1900, having sold licences to use the Daimler name in a number of countries. The licence granted in 1891 to the British F. R. Simms & Co included the right to use the Daimler name in Great Britain and in 1896 the British Daimler Motor Company was founded. History of the Daimler Motor Company (GB) The Daimler Motor Company Limited, was an independent In the 1950s, Daimler stopped making Lanchesters, and tried British motor vehicle manufacturer founded in London by H. to widen its appeal with a line of new developed sport cars J.

The company bought the right to the use of the Bernard Docker and his newly married wife Norah Collins Daimler name simultaneously from Gottlieb Daimler and performed highly publicised extravagances. This led to the Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft of Cannstatt, Germany. After fact that the newly crowned Queen Elizabeth II, who had a early financial difficulty and a reorganization of the company preference for Rolls-Royce anyway, did not use Daimler for in 1904, the Daimler Motor Company was purchased by official events since 1955.

  • History of Jaguar Cars
    Jaguar History Jaguar Cars (Brand of Jaguar Land Rover) Jaguar Cars (/ˈdʒæɡjuː.ər/ JAG-ew-ər) is a brand of Jaguar Land Rover,[6] a British multinational car manufacturer headquartered in Whitley, Coventry, England, owned by Tata Motors[1][2][3][7] since 2008. Founded 1922 by Sir William Lyons and William Walmsley Jaguar was founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company in 1922, originally making motorcycle sidecars before developing passenger cars. The name was changed to Jaguar after World War II to avoid the unfavorable connotations of the SS initials.[8] Sale to The British Motor Corporation followed in 1966, the resulting enlarged company now being renamed as British Motor Holdings (BMH), which in 1968 merged with Leyland Motor Corporation and became British Leyland, itself to be nationalized in 1975. Jaguar was de-merged from British Leyland and was listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1984, becoming a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index until it was acquired by Ford in 1990.[9] Jaguar has, in recent years, manufactured cars for the British Prime Minister, the most recent delivery being an XJ in May 2010.[10] The company also holds royal warrants from Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles.[11] Jaguar cars today are designed in Jaguar Land Rover's engineering centers at the Whitley plant in Coventry and at their Gaydon site in Warwickshire, and are manufactured in Jaguar's Castle Bromwich assembly plant in Birmingham with some manufacturing expected to take place in the Solihull plant. In September 2013 Jaguar Land Rover announced plans to open a 100 million GBP (160 million USD) research and development center in Warwick, United Kingdom to create a next generation of vehicle technologies.
