Having said that each of the three major German has a weakness or two Mercedes suffered reliability problems and quality over the years, BMW interiors are too conservative and Audis more understeer because the engine is too far forward in the car.
Over the years since their release from Ford, Volvo and Jaguar have got a lot of the above, but not all, but there are clear signs that they are intended to do, and to reach the heights of the Big Three German unite examine all the above points compared to Jaguar and Volvo.
Jaguar upscale brand is a premium brand Volvo already and is on track to be its new cars are a step above the Opels and Fords of this world, but are not quite there with Jaguar that said Audi has started from a low position and moved his way.

Halo Jaguar car both with the XKR-S and XFR-S, but the C-X75 could have been much more Volvo has not canceled a halo car for the moment but the concept P1800 could be that, at some point.

Range of Jaguar and Volvo engines already have a wide range of engines, but buy most of them for, would you believe, Ford, limiting both outputs are building their own factories to build the cutting edge engines and increase the offer.
Niche busting Neither Volvo or Jaguar shocked everyone with models that sell well but are located t easily with the brand Jaguar SUV will be the first step Volvo needs to expand its model range.
Four Jaguar wheel drive makes it in some markets, but not in the UK because it was reverse engineering and doesn t agree with RHD models they need to do in all markets in future Volvo cars features a range of four-wheel limited but should offer across several models.
Car larger and smaller This is all about the depth of the Volvo range has sussed at the upper end and works on the lower rungs Volvo's in the lower end, but the S80 lacks credibility against similar offerings .
Low residue reputations rescued years Ford Jaguar and Volvo are on trajectories to increase both have achieved good results in terms of reliability and customer satisfaction surveys in recent years.
Variants on small living room of the Jaguar base car will also be offered as a sport brake He also needs a cabriolet and coupe Volvo S60 is also an area, but there is no coupe or convertible in the range Volvo has experimented with these and must introduce variants soon.

Dealers Jaguar dealers give more customer satisfaction then any other brand Volvo's are there with Mercedes and BMW and Audi See the JD Power 2013 Customer Satisfaction Survey results here.
Fresh and aspirational Jaguar is considered an aspirational brand among older owners, but not many young Volvo lacking in this respect, although it is considered quite cool Motorsport activity, new models and marketing of the brand can help in this regard.
Motorsports Jaguar and Volvo are quite lacking here, even though the two had a stab in passenger cars there a few years they both need high-level motorsport programs.
All performances above that Volvo and Jaguar are there or thereabouts and need a few years before the German Big Three becomes the Big Five European, I drove the car all these manufacturers and can absolutely attest that Jaguar and Volvo are the cars and manage, have better interiors, also good as technology, also good engine ranges, as good as, and provide as much satisfaction as similar models of the Big Three German.
Why the big three German could become the Big Five European, German, become European engine range.
