hey we all know this right

pretty much yes i knew this.
Ferrari used to be owned by fiat. it was spun off as a independent brand when they acquired Chrysler.
wasn't PSA trying to acquire Chrysler or did they already? i do know fiat has been actively trying to sell Chrysler.
if i remember correctly VW is the largest combined car manufacturer in the world.

No, I did not fully know the breadth of those financial relationships.

How long has Scion been gone?

Subaru?

And these are just wholly owned, not partnerships.
also, this comes from the 4 year old article These 14 Companies Control the Entire Auto Industry
https://www.visualcapitalist.com/14-companies-control-entire-auto-industry/
that references this other article These 14 giant corporations dominate the global auto industry
https://www.businessinsider.com/car-companies-of-the-world-2016-12

Notice how the slightly different word changes your perception?
Control The Entire /= Dominate The Global

Ferrari, Genesis,,,,,,,,,,,,,??

How many of these giant corporations control the world truck manufacturing too?

Daimler owns Freightliner and Western Star. Renault used to control Mack but now Volvo does. VW was in the process of acquiring the rest of Navistar but that deal is on hold given the current economic state caused by the Zombie Apocalypse.
