What Car Brand Has a Shield Emblem?
1 Answers
There are many car brands worldwide that feature shield-shaped emblems, such as Buick, Abarth, Dodge-Ram, Proton, Porsche, Koenigsegg, Youngman Lotus, Lamborghini, Lancia, Tesla, Hilbert, Geely-Panther, Zhongyu, Rosen, and others. The distinctions between these brands lie in the details and content of the shield patterns. The most common one is Buick. Buick's famous 'Three Shields' emblem is based on three shields within a circle. Its origin can be directly traced back to the coat of arms of David Dunbar Buick, a Scottish founder of the automobile manufacturing industry. Today's 'Three Shields' logo has undergone some modifications in details. The deer head and cross patterns have disappeared, but the designs of the red, silver-gray, and blue shields remain largely unchanged from the original, and the checkerboard ribbon pattern is still used today. Just like its name, the Buick family emblem will forever commemorate David Dunbar Buick, who created Buick and ushered in the birth of General Motors, the world's largest car manufacturer.
