AUTOMOBILE releases updated “blood vessel map” of a automobile universe
Five years ago, AUTOMOBILE combined the subway-style map of each vital automaker, the brands and sub-brands, along with its technological partners, spin-offs as well as associated relationships. It was enough to have our conduct raze, but a map done deciphering a incestuous relationship in between a world’s automakers the bit simpler.
In the latest emanate, AUTOMOBILE has updated a map for 2010, including each vital as well as teenager automaker and how any are tied together. The Brit beer hall admits they’ve taken the decidedly Western viewpoint, leaving out some of the odder marques as well as a couple of brands from emerging markets, though even then SAIC as well as Tata have been in a mix, along with Fisker as well as Maybach.
Obviously, General Motors’ brands have been pared down in a last 5 years, though prior to a mag went to imitation, they weren’t able to update the map with a so-to-be-shuttered Mercury marque. And yes, they’ve got Porsche as a sub-group inside of Volkswagen as well as the newly-minted partnership in between Toyota as well as Tesla as good.
Check both a original as well as upgraded maps in a gallery below, as well as make certain to perspective them in high-res to get a finish viewpoint.
