Mercedes-Benz Model List. Every Mercedes, Every Year.<\/h2>\n

Mercedes\u2019 beginnings stretch back to 1886 and the invention of the internal combustion vehicle. This occurred in two separate, independent locations in Southwestern Germany only 60 miles apart. Karl Benz produced a petrol-powered car (a 3-wheeler) and Gottlieb Daimler, together with Wilhelm Maybach, produced a petrol-powered converted stagecoach. Both parties were unaware of each other\u2019s work. Daimler and Maybach went on to make the first 4-wheel petrol car in 1889, and founded DMG. This stood for Daimler-Motren-Gesellschaft. DMG began selling automobile in 1890. Benz was hot on their tracks, producing his first 4-wheeler in 1891. By 1900 his firm, Benz & Cie was the world\u2019s largest automaker. The first models to bear the Mercedes name were a series of DMG sports cars named after the daughter of wealthy entrepreneur and auto racing enthusiast Emil Jellinek, Mercedes. They continued to work independently until 1924. Then, due to the economic ramifications of the First World War, the competitors began cooperating. After two years, they had formally merged to form Daimler-Benz AG. The company\u2019s cars and trucks were thereafter produced under the name of Mercedes-Benz. They soon became industry leaders, and it was after the launch of the large and prestigious Mercedes-Benz W15 that Mercedes-Benz was created as a separate division under Daimler-Benz AG.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the 1950s Mercedes-Benz launched some of their best looking cars including the 190 and the 300 SL. The 300 L was the first production vehicle to utilize fuel-injection technology. The 1960s saw continued success with the 220, the 230 and the 600, also known as the W100. Since then Mercedes-Benz has sat at the top of the luxury market and has also made some great sports cars too (especially since its full acquisition the AMG company). While it is most famous throughout the world for large luxury passenger cars, the company has used the AMG acquisition to grow its sports car model list while also growing its market share in the ever-important SUV and crossover segment too. Then there’s the push towards electrification – Mercedes Benz has committed to an all-electric lineup by 2030 (where markets permit). It is an ambitious target no doubt but one that the carmaker is not shying away from. There is already a Mercedes EQ division to anchor the drive towards an electric future and a few all-electric models have already been introduced to the public<\/span><\/p>\n

Mercedes-Benz & Mercedes-AMG Model List<\/h2>\n

Mercedes Production Models<\/h2>\n

Very few automotive manufacturers have as rich a history as Mercedes-Benz. The Mercedes-Benz brand was created when the merger between Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft (DMG) and Benz & Cie., came together to becom Daimler-Benz AG, in summer 1926. It wouldn\u2019t be right to have a page about Mercedes-Benz models without acknowledging the originals, the Benz cars. The 1886 Benz Patent-Motorwagen (created by Mr. Karl Benz himself), is not only the first piece of machinery under the famous brand name, but is widely regarded and respected as the first gasoline-powered automobile ever in history. This vehicle was financed and first made famous by Karl Benz\u2019s wife, Bertha. From there, several Benz models went on the build the company we know and love today.<\/span><\/p>\n

Luxury started early for Mercedes. The roots of the S-Class for example date back to the origins of the Mercedes brand: in 1903, Wilhelm Maybach, chief designer at Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft, developed the Mercedes Simplex 60 hp, a new top-of-the-range model that was available also in the form of a luxurious touring saloon. It was an automobile worthy of every superlative \u2013 elegant and exclusive, stately and fast \u2013 an automobile that opened up new perspectives for the high society of the day and which, thanks to its lavish spaciousness, seats in the style of comfortable armchairs and fully enclosed passenger compartment, offered a degree of motoring comfort unattained by conventional \u201cmotor carriages\u201d. In short, the Simplex 60 hp transformed the automobile into a form of conveyance acceptable in polite society. Since then the Mercedes name has stood for luxury above all else.<\/span><\/p>\n

AMG and Mercedes-AMG Model List<\/h2>\n

Two men with a passion for motorsport and engineering founded AMG. The vision from the very beginning was to offer road vehicles modeled after successful racing car. While AMG equipped more and more Mercedes models with performance technology it was really the 1970s where new discipline evolved: customization. The attractive business segment allowed AMG to grow to a medium-sized company with more and more foreign clients. In 1976, Mercedes-AMG, together with about a dozen employees, moved to a purpose-built workshop and office space in Affalterbach. AMG became an engine manufacturer in 1984 due to an innovation: Melcher developed a completely independent cylinder head with four valves per cylinder. In 1986, AMG implanted the 5.0-liter V8 in an E-class coupe, which received worldwide fame under the nickname \u201cThe Hammer\u201d. To this day, this is a primary icon of the AMG myth in the United States. In the late 1980s, Daimler-Benz and AMG started to work together; first as official racing partners. The highlight of this period is the success story of the 190. The racecar, which was entered into the race by AMG with the support of the manufacturer, won a total of 50 DTM victories between 1988 and 1993. Hans Werner Aufrecht transferred a majority stake in the steadily growing company to DaimlerChrysler AG on January 1, 1999. On January 1, 2005 DaimlerChrysler acquired 100 per cent of the shares. This allowed the newly founded Mercedes\u2011AMG GmbH to benefit to an even greater extent from the Group’s resources and global standing.  Below is a list of every AMG model we could find and we went all the way back to the beginning. We think we got them all but please let us know if we missed any.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mercedes Race Car List<\/h2>\n

For over a century, the three-pointed star has been synonymous with motorsport excellence. From the pioneering days of Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler to the cutting-edge technology of modern Formula 1, Mercedes-Benz has consistently pushed the boundaries of speed, innovation, and engineering prowess. <\/span><\/p>\n

Mercedes-Benz Concept Car List<\/h2>\n

Sexy, beautiful, stunning and most certainly futuristic. Mercedes is not afraid to let aesthetics and soul take over in their designs. They\u2019re really passionate about making a statement about what they see as the future of the automobile. They also signal very strongly where they will invest. Just look at the various prototypes that they have produced over the years and you get a real sense for why this automotive company is considered by many as one of the best design forward companies around. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
