Karl Kässbohrer Fahrzeugwerke

The group broke up in 1995 due to economic problems and was acquired by Daimler Truck, which continues to produce under the brand name Setra.

[2] In the mid to late 1930s the first low-bed with 12 ton capacity was produced and the Kässbohrer Ulm factory in Peter-Schmid-Straβe expanded to meet demand with staff numbers increasing from 300 to 1000 between the years 1934 - 1939.

In 1994 the snow groomer and beach cleaner division was bought out by management and became Kässbohrer Geländefahrzeug.

There is also a current Kässbohrer Fahrzeugwerke in Goch, Germany, manufacturing trailers for commercial vehicles, and is since 2002 part of the Tirsan group.

A great number of Kässbohrer Setra coaches and buses are still in service on European roads, sometimes having a mileage of more than a million kilometers.
