Übermacht is a German automotive company featured in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V.
It is likely a parody of German automobiles manufacturer BMW, as its Oracle, Rebla and Sentinel vehicles are derived from BMW designs. The term "übermacht" is German for "supremacy" or "superior", likely a jab at real-life BMW owners having an aura of superiority over other marques when driving. Much like Benefactor, the cars have modified versions, in reference to BMW's in-house tuning division, BMW M (Motorsport) , however, much like Benefactor, most of the modifications are purely esthetics.
Advertisement for the Oracle commonly seen on billboards in the city.
An Oracle ad parodying BMW's ad style is seen on billboards around the city, including one at Star Junction. It shows a picture of the car with the caption "Automatic Arrogance". According to Time magazine, German luxury automakers were known to be "Teutonic and utilitaria" with dealers described as "arrogant". [1]
