Mercedes-Benz

The history of Mercedes-Benz starts at the turn of the 20th century. The company&#39;s lineage begins with <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/benz-cie/">Benz &amp; Cie</a> and the Daimler Motor Corporation (DMG). Daimler introduced the Mercedes 35hp, an automobile named after the daughter of DMG dealer and associate Emil Jellinek, setting the precedent for the use of the name. In 1926, DMG and Benz merged to create Mercedes-Benz, with their first car released in the same year. In the years since its creation, Mercedes-Benz has become one of the world&#39;s premier automotive manufacturers, known for their high level of engineering as well as their luxury. The company also has a prestigious racing history, have participated in all sorts of motorsport competitions, and achieved notable victories in Formula 1 and Le Mans. Just a few of the company&#39;s&nbsp;storied historical models include the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/sl/w198/300-sl-gullwing/">300 SL Gullwing</a>, the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/540k/">540K</a>, the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/600/">600</a>, and the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/s/w112/">300 SE</a>. Among the more notable modern cars are the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/sls/">SLS</a>, <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/slr-mclaren/">SLR McLaren</a>, and <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/clk/clk-gtr/">CLK GTR</a>.

Mercedes-Benz 170

The Mercedes-Benz 170 is a range of cars built by Mercedes-Benz between 1931 and 1955. The first cars to be fitted with the 170 badge were the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/170/type-170/">Type 170 (W15)</a>, this series of cars featured a 1.7L inline six engine and was largely available in hard or open top variants. The Type 170 was succeeded by the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/170/170-v/">Mercedes-Benz 170V (W136)</a>, which featured 1.7L inline four engines. Production of the 170V was halted during world WW2, but resumed in 1949. The 170 V was then joined by the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/170/170-s/">170S (W136 &amp; W191)</a>. A more upscale model, the 170 S was the last 170 to be built, ending production in 1955. A rear engined model known as the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/h/170-h/">170H</a> was also created, but it features in the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/h/">Mercedes-Benz H</a> family.

Mercedes-Benz 170V

Mercedes-Benz introduced the 170V in 1935. A series of four cylinder engined cars, the 170 V was named due to its 1.7L engines, and the placement of the engine in the front (V is short for Vorn, which means front in German). The V helps to differentiate the 170V from the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/h/170-h/">170H</a>, a rear engine model also produced by Mercedes. The model had a successful life before WW2, when it was offered mainly as a <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/170/170-v/saloon/">170V Saloon</a>, <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/170/170-v/cabriolet/">170V Cabriolet</a>, and <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/170/170-v/roadster/">170V Roadster</a>. A rare body style known as the Cabrio-Limousine was also built, featuring four full doors and a full length foldable canvas roof, was also created. Production was halted due to the war, yet slowly started back up again starting in 1946. Open top variants of the 170 V were no longer manufactured after the war, except for the four door open top 170 D OTP, which was specially made for the German Police. Production of the 170V and its variants ended in 1953.
