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>.

Mercedes-Benz 300SL - W198

The Mercedes-Benz 300SL (chassis code W198) was a two-seat sports car produced by Mercedes-Benz as a <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/sl/w198/300-sl-gullwing/">Gullwing Coupe (1954-1957)</a> and <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/sl/w198/300-sl-roadster/">Roadster (1957-1963)</a>. It was based on the company&#39;s highly successful 1952 racer, the W194, with merchanical direct fuel-injection, a first on a production vehicle, boosting power almost 50% on its 3-litre overhead camshaft straight-6 engine. Capable of reaching a top speed of up to 163 mph, it was both a sports car racing champion and the fastest production car of its time. The 300 SL was inspired by Max Hoffman, Mercedes-Benz&#39;s authorized United States importer at the time, who correctly perceived a large American market for such a car. The company introduced the 300SL in February 1954 at the International Motor Sports Show in New York instead of in Europe in order to get it into U.S. buyers&#39; hands sooner. Production of the 300 SL lasted until 1963, with a combined total of 3,258 examples built. Although the direct successor was the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/sl/w113/">Mercedes-Benz W113 SL-Class</a>, the spiritual successor is considered to be the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/sls/">Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG</a>.

The Mercedes-Benz 190SL (W121) is a two-door luxury roadster produced by Mercedes-Benz between May 1955 and February 1963. Internally referred to as W121 (BII or B2), it was first shown as a prototype at the 1954 New York Auto Show, and was available with an optional removable hardtop. The 190 SL presented an attractive, more affordable alternative to the exclusive <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mercedes-benz/sl/w198/">Mercedes-Benz 300SL</a>, sharing its basic styling, engineering, detailing, and fully independent suspension. Both cars had double wishbones in front and swing axles at the rear. Instead of the 300SL&#39;s expensive purpose-built W198 tubular spaceframe, the 190SL&#39;s R121 structure used a shortened unitary floorpan modified from the W121 base saloon.
