5 significant Mercedes cars from history
 |
The Mercedes-Benz SSK. The name means Super Sport Kurz, or “Super Sport Short” in German, the model, which was built between 1928 and 1932, was capable of extreme performance, which it realised when it won numerous competitions. At the time, it was one of the most highly regarded sports cars although it was a wheelbase of an early Mercedes-Benz S.
The Mercedes-Benz W125 Rekordwagen was produced in the tail end of the 1930s derived from a recent car at the time. The significant difference was the engine as the Grand Prix race car had a lower engine, a V12, which was able to reduce drag.
The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. Mercedes-Benz teamed up with McLaren Automotive on developing this grand tourer. It was built in England in Woking, Surrey, and Portsmouth and it sold between 2003 and 2009. At the time of development, Mercedez-Benz owned close to half of the McLaren Group. The car was classified by some commentators as a GT.
The Mercedes-Benz S-Class. 1972 saw the introduction of the luxury sedans at the same time as the W116 S-Class. It followed on from the previous models of the brand which date a few decades back, to the 1950s. The S-Class is the flagship of the brand and has seen many first appearances of their technologies such as the drivetrain technologies.
The Mercedes-Benz M-Class. This sporty, utility SUV was brought to the market in 1997. However, it was officially listed a 1998 model. Its success didn’t occur overnight but it eventually proved successful in the Us and Mexican markets. With regards to its size it is larger tan a GLK lass but smaller than a GL-Class, a model with a platform that it shares. At one point, it was also being built in Austria, with an eye on he European market. This was before it moved to a part of the US market.
