Cadillac is one of the names in the world of automobiles. Interestingly, the company was born but held by Henry Ford, owner of Ford, one of the most popular car manufacturers in the world. In 1901, Henry Ford founded the Henry Ford Company as the second car manufacturer. However, Henry Ford left the company because of disagreements with the company's financial assistants, Lemuel Bowen and William Murphy.

Murphy and Brown first thought of selling Henry's equipment to this company. But later they decided to start building a new car without selling it. In 1902 the new company was renamed Cadillac. In 1909, the company bought General Motors.

Since then, Cadillac has gained a good reputation as a luxury car manufacturer. They won the prestigious Dewar Trophy in 1908 and 1912.
