Mercedes Benz

Mercedes Benz
Mercedes-Benz is a German brand of automobiles , buses and trucks of the company Daimler AG (formerly Daimler-Benz and DaimlerChrysler). Mercedes-Benz is the oldest car manufacturer in the world. The closest competitors of Mercedes-Benz in the current market for luxury cars are Acura , Alfa Romeo , Audi , BMW , Cadillac , Infiniti , Jaguar , Lexus and Volvo . The famous three-pointed star, designed by Gottlieb Daimler , symbolizes the ability of his motors for use on land, sea or air.
The creators of the company date back to 1881 , when Daimler and Benz invented independently of the internal combustion engine car in southwest Germany . Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach , who together invented the four-stroke engine Template: 1914 , worked together in Cannstatt (a district of Stuttgart ); Benz had his shop in Mannheim near Heidelberg . There are no records that both inventors had ever known.
With this engine, Daimler and Benz created the world's first car in 1886, initially naming it “Daimler-Benz Motor Wagen Pattent.” This prototype had only three wheels and a single gear, a top speed of 17 km / h, with a maximum power of 0.9 horsepower. Your engine runs on gasoline, but at that time it was sold only in pharmacies. A few months after its invention, the wife of Benz made a trip to visit a relative. Her husband asked her to take the Pattent Motor Wagen to prove it, and did so. As a note of curiosity, every year brings the model of the Mercedes-Benz of Mannheim and is a representation of the era garb. A few years later took out a new version, and with four wheels and two gears, reaching a maximum speed of 20 km / h.
