Name originThe brand name Apollo comes from the Gumpert Apollo, the car developed by Roland Gumpert. The sources used here do not explain why the name was chosen, so no meaning is claimed. After the 2016 purchase, the company itself took the name Apollo Automobil.The name of the company was suggested by Manfred Gotta, a German brand-development expert, when Klaus Dieter Frers founded Artega in 2006. It is a coined name and does not come from a founder's surname.
