Not a Chenu or an Alliance.

A clue, there is a family connection to a famous composer.

Ravel? (Although actually I don't think that make fits the other criteria you've given.)

Not Ravel.

The name of the car has 7 letters, however the composer's name, from the company who produced the car has more.

I hope this makes sense.
