Trivia Today: Question: What does the letter B in the car company BMW stand for? Answer: BMW stands for Bavarian Motor Works (German: Bayerische Motoren-Werke). BMW is a German automobile, motorcycle and engine manufacturing company founded in 1916. After the end of World War I in 1918, BMW was forced to cease aircraft-engine production by the terms of the Versailles Armistice Treaty. The company consequently shifted to motorcycle production in 1923, once the restrictions of the treaty started to be lifted, followed by automobiles in 1928. BMW is part of the German Big 3 luxury automakers, along with Audi and Mercedes-Benz, which are the three best-selling luxury automakers in the world.
