Daimler AG (-deˈdaɪmlɐ aːˈɡeː; formerly DaimlerChrysler) is a German car corporation. By unit sales, it is the thirteenth-largest car manufacturer and second-largest truck manufacturer in the world. In addition to automobiles, Daimler manufactures buses and provides financial services through its Daimler Financial Services arm. The company also owns major stakes in aerospace group EADS, high-technology and parent company of the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes racing team McLaren Group (which currently is in the process of becoming a fully independent stand-alone corporate entity), and Japanese truck maker Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation.

DaimlerChrysler was founded (1998 � 2007) when Mercedes-Benz manufacturer Daimler-Benz (1926 � 1998) of Stuttgart, Germany merged with the US-based Chrysler Corporation in 1998. The deal created a new entity, DaimlerChrysler. However, the buyout failed to produce the trans-Atlantic automotive powerhouse dealmakers had hoped for, and DaimlerChrysler announced on May 14, 2007 that it would sell Chrysler to Cerberus Capital Management of New York, a private equity firm that specializes in restructuring troubled companies. On October 4, 2007 a DaimlerChrysler Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting approved the renaming of the company. From October 5, 2007, the company has been titled Daimler AG. The US company adopted the name Chrysler LLC when the sale completed on August 3, 2007.

Daimler produces cars and trucks under the brands of Mercedes-Benz, Maybach, Smart, Freightliner and many others.

Mercedes-Benz - www.sitedogta.com.br - Mercedes-Benz 280SE (W116) - www.sitedogta.com.br - Mercedes-Benz is a German manufacturer of automobiles, buses, coaches, and trucks. It is currently a division of the parent company, Daimler AG (formerly DaimlerChrysler AG), after previously being owned by Daimler-Benz. Mercedes-Benz has its origins in Karl Benz's creation of the first automobile in January 1886,[1] and by Gottlieb Daimler and engineer Wilhelm Maybach's conversion of a carriage by the addition of a petrol engine the same year. The Mercedes automobile was first marketed in 1901 by Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft. The first Mercedes-Benz brand name vehicles were produced in 1926, following the merger of Karl Benz's and Gottlieb Daimler's companies into the Daimler-Benz company.[1] Mercedes-Benz has introduced many technological and safety innovations that have become common in other vehicles several years later. Since its inception, Mercedes-Benz had a reputation for quality and durability. Objective measures looking at passenger vehicles such as JD Power surveys demonstrated a downturn in reputation in this area in the late 1990s and early 2000s. By mid-2005, Mercedes temporarily returned to the industry average for initial quality, a measure of problems after the first 90 days of ownership, according to JD Power.[2] In JD Power's Initial Quality Study for the first quarter of 2007, Mercedes showed dramatic improvement by climbing from 25th to 5th place, surpassing <b>...</b>

Was kaum jemand weiÃ: Deutschland ist weltweit die Nummer Drei der Waffenexporteure Umsatzprognose steigend, selbst in der Krise. Einer, der sein bürgerschaftliches Engagement im Widerstand gegen die Produktion von Kriegsmaterial sieht, ist Jürgen Grässlin. Mit ungebrochener Vehemenz stellt sich der Realschullehrer schon seit über 25 Jahren gegen deutsche Waffenhersteller wie die Firma Heckler & Koch oder GroÃkonzerne wie die Daimler AG. Eine zermürbende Aufgabe, für die er sich in seiner Freizeit engagiert - ehrenamtlich auch als Vorsitzender diverser Friedensgruppen wie der Deutschen Friedensgesellschaft Vereinigte KriegsdiensgegnerInnen oder dem Deutschen Aktionsnetz Kleinwaffen Stoppen. Ein Kampf David gegen Goliath.
