What is the oldest car company? (Check description)?

A quick google search indicates Mercedes at 137 years old (1883) to be the oldest. However, upon research i have found that Mitsubishi was founded in 1870, making it 150 years old. Is this wrong and google is right?

    Mitsubishi is the oldest company that currently makes cars.

    Mercedes is the current name of the first company to make cars.  That company (Daimler motors corporation) sold its first car in 1892.  Mitsubishi didn't sell its first car until 1917.

    Car manufacture under the Mitsubishi name goes back to 1917 with the Mitsubishi Model A, the first series-production passenger car to be made in Japan (22 were produced).
