Founders

Adam Opel was founded on January 21, 1862, initially producing sewing machines. He then made bicycles in 1886 and introduced the first car in 1899. Opel decided to stop producing sewing machines and became the largest car manufacturer in Germany in 1913 and the largest car manufacturer in Europe in 1930. The company does not only produce cars under the Opel name, but also the Vauxhall, Buick and Holden brands. Opel is now part of PSA, but was previously part of the General Motors Group.
