If the search is expanded to motorcycles, the Royal Enfield Bullet has also been about since the 1930s.

The individual model names don't always follow from one generation to another but you've been able to buy a BMW 520  every day since early 1972.

If you bought one every day you'd have over 18,000 of the fuckers by now even allowing for public holidays! I want to know where you are keeping them all? ðŸ¤£

Opel used the name 'Blitz' for light lorries from 1930 to when the Opel name was dropped from the commercials (late 1970's). The last Blitz was in fact a rebadged Bedford CF. 

The Opel name is now back on vans, this time rebadged Vauxhall Movanos and Vivaros.

Possibly a contender for longest gap between generations, HC finished in 1979 then rather short-lived revival 2015-19.
