These are the best car brands in 2024 - the ranking
Also, Toyota is once again first place as the world's most valuable car brand, podium completed by Mercedes and BMW
Like every year, Interbrand, a US consultancy, has drawn up a ranking of the world's best brands, ranking them one after the other and calculating the value of each individual brand, but not only in economic terms. Other indicators are also looked at, such as its role within its target market, strategy, management and much more.
The ranking is once again led by Apple and contains numerous brands from the automotive universe, where Toyota looks down on all competitors.
