The Oldsmobile car is known as the “Car of Firsts.” It was the first in various major car innovations in car history. Oldsmobile was founded by Ransom E. Old in 1897, thus the name Oldsmobile was born. This, however was only a brand name since the cars were made by General Motors Corporation. During the first few years of its release, it became one of the top-selling cars in the United States. It was General Motor's version of luxury and sophistication which were the very features that made it hot in the market. Th first Oldsmobile car, Curved Dash, was the first mass-produced car in 1901. It was also the first American car to be exported in 1901.

Oldsmobile soared to success in the following years with its long line of innovations including the first speedometer, the first rocket engine, the first automatic transmission and the first GPS-based navigation, to name a few, along the way, introducing cars that made their way to history.

It was during the 1970's and 1980's that the Oldsmobile reached the peak of its selling career with the release of the Cutlass and the Cutlass Supreme. These cars were specially famous for their V-8 Rocket Engine.

By the 1990's, sales began to drop and Oldsmobile was no longer popular in the market. General Motors only used Oldsmobile to showcase “futuristic” designs and other experimental designs that had no assurance of making it in the market. Aurora was introduced in the mid-'90s and later became the inspiration of all Oldsmobile models throughout the 1990's.

Finally, after years of poor performance in the market, General Motors finally decided to phase out the Oldsmobile brand in 2004. Th last car that was released was the Alero compact car and from there, Oldsmobile bade goodbye. It became the oldest surviving American automobile marque with its 107 years of car production history.

Oldsmobile has been known and is still being remembered as the first car with unique and innovative styling. And today, these characteristics still show through in all Oldsmobile cars around the globe.
