The Birth of BMW: The First-Ever BMW Car

In the annals of automotive history, few brands have captured the imagination and loyalty of enthusiasts as profoundly as BMW. Renowned for their engineering excellence, driving pleasure, and innovative designs, BMW's journey began not with the iconic kidney grilles we know today but with a modest yet significant beginning. The first-ever BMW car, the BMW 3/15, marked the brand's transition from aircraft engines to automobiles, setting the foundation for a legacy that continues to thrive.

BMW, short for Bayerische Motoren Werke (Bavarian Motor Works), was originally established in 1916 as an aircraft engine manufacturer. The Treaty of Versailles after World War I prohibited Germany from producing aircraft engines, leading BMW to diversify its operations. The company began producing motorcycle engines and then entire motorcycles, gaining a reputation for quality engineering. However, it was not until the late 1920s that BMW ventured into the automotive sector.
