It all began in 1886, when Karl Benz patented the first internal combustion engine-powered automobile. A few years later, Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach developed their own engine and founded the Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft (DMG). These two companies would eventually merge to form Mercedes-Benz in 1926.

A Legacy of Innovation

Throughout its history, Mercedes-Benz has been at the forefront of automotive innovation. The company has developed numerous technologies that have become industry standards, including the internal combustion engine, the carburetor, and the supercharger.

Mercedes-Benz has also been a pioneer in safety. The company introduced the first crumple zone in 1959 and the first airbag in 1981. Today, Mercedes-Benz vehicles are among the safest on the road.

Legendary Vehicles

Mercedes-Benz has produced some of the most iconic vehicles in automotive history. The 300 SL "Gullwing" is a classic sports car that was produced in the 1950s. The S-Class is a luxury sedan that has been in production for over 60 years. And the G-Class is a rugged SUV that has been used by military and civilian organizations around the world.

The No Glove No Love Story

The Mercedes-Benz story is not just about cars. It is also about the people who have made the brand what it is today. One of those people is Hans Werner Aufrecht, the co-founder of AMG.

Aufrecht and his partner Erhard Melcher started AMG in 1967 as a performance tuning company. They quickly gained a reputation for building high-performance Mercedes-Benz vehicles. In 1999, AMG was acquired by DaimlerChrysler, and it has been the performance arm of Mercedes-Benz ever since.

Aufrecht is a passionate car enthusiast who has dedicated his life to making Mercedes-Benz vehicles even better. He is known for his "No Glove No Love" philosophy, which means that he believes that you should always drive a Mercedes-Benz with your hands on the wheel.
