Automobile in Stuttgart

The automobile in Stuttgart

Report of interviews

Through school trip in Stuttgart in Germany, we saw automobile field. We became interested about Germans interest for automobile.We went in the Königstraße street, the main avenue of Stuttgart asked  Germans about their favorite car.

Most of them have a car or two. Gemans are unanimous in thinking that German’s cars are the best. Most part of them have mercedes but some had Opel, Volkswagen or Renault. 

Some of them already go to the Porsche and Mercedes Museum and Germans prefer the Mercedes Museum because there is an chronological order and “catalogue” effect with the brand’s technological innovations than Porsche and we can learn more things in it wheareas in the other museum it’s like you go in a car dealer if you don’t take a guide. But when we ask them if they have the choice amoung a free Mercedes or a free Porsche their take the Porsche.

So “Why ?” well because they are pretty, fast, powerful, cozy, and everybody love it ! A young man told us that it’s “cool for show off in the city”. But back to reality, they prefer Mercedes because it’s more affordable and less expensive. After that, back to reality, we were curious to know what are their selection criteria before buy an automobile. Germans over 30 years choise usually a family car and under 30 years they save until have money for that or they research a simple car for go work, getting around town. Most of them choose the powerful (at affordable price) and the design. To conclude, Germans are different, some speak normally with us and other refuses to do. It’s a good and funny experience.
