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>.

This series of cars are nicknamed Heckflosse, which means &#39;Fintail&#39; in German. The sedan variants feature a more defined fintail, while the coupe and cabriolet sport a much cleaner rear end. The W111 eventually generated two variants, the more upscale <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/s/w112/">W112</a>, and the more accessible W110.
