Depends on your definition of 'auto maker'. There were a number of European inventors who built proof-of-concept vehicles. However, Karl Benz is recognized as the father of auto making. Benz's company, Benz & Cie., started selling production automobiles in 1888. This makes them the worlds first producer of automobiles. Benz & Cie., has since undergone various changes and the namesake company, Mercedes-Benz, is today a subsidiary of Daimler AG.
