Mercedes-Benz has a long legacy built on manufacturing some of the most luxurious and highest performing sedans, coupés, SUVs, and sports cars in the world. Each vehicle boasts the state of the art automotive technology to create a degree of performance, comfort, design, and technology that is rarely, if ever, surpassed. But, if you’ve ever wondered who makes Mercedes-Benz, Performance Mercedes-Benz can answer! Read on to learn more about Mercedes-Benz, its history, and its current vehicles.
At the end of the 19th century, inventor Karl Benz created the first gas-powered automobile — the Benz Patent Motorwagen. After a few years, it hit the market in 1901, sold by Daimler Motors Corporation. In 1926 Mercedes-Benz became the brand and automaker we’re familiar with today when Benz and Gottlieb Daimler merged their automaking companies and began operating under “Daimler-Benz.”
The Mercedes-Benz brand continues going strong after nearly a century. Along with producing luxurious sedans, rugged SUVs, sleek roadsters and convertibles, and hybrid vehicles, Mercedes-Benz has stayed on top of automotive innovation with the AMG® performance division. Some of the fastest and most powerful cars available on the market like the AMG® GT are built by Mercedes-Benz. Other popular Mercedes-Benz vehicles include:
Today, Daimler AG still owns Mercedes-Benz, as it has since 1926 when the brand went by “Daimler-Benz.” Mercedes-Benz Corporation is a division of Daimler AG — a larger German auto manufacturer that also has a reputation throughout the industry for designing and building upscale vehicles. Their headquarters is located in Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
