New Mercedes-Benz

Herr Karl Benz established his car company in 1871. Though often regarded as the originator of the motor car, Mercedes-Benz itself was only formed in 1926, after the Daimler-Benz company was formed from the combination of Benz & Cie and Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft (DMG), following years of rivalry. The founders of DMG, Wilhelm Maybach and Gottlieb Daimler, had already departed their business or died but, out of post World war One economic necessity, the two car firms reached an "Agreement of Mutual Interest" that was signed in 1924 and remained valid until 2000. The agreement entitled the firms to seperately produce their own vehicles under each brand name. The first Mercedes-Benz cars were not produced or marketed until 1926. It is this continuous link to Karl Benz that makes the Mercedes-Benz company officially the oldest car maker in the world. And it was Gottlieb Daimler who devised the iconic "Three-Pointed-Star", which represents the three areas of transport - land, sea and aviation. The Three-Pointed-Star first appearaed on a DMG product in 1909. Daimler's name was used on other motor vehicles and was dropped. Benz's contribution is the laurel ring on the Mercedes-Benz badge. Today's Mercedes-Benz company logo was used first in 1937. Mercedes-Benz has long been an advocate of innovation often bringing to the automotive market a marvellous array of acronyms for its numerous inventions. The final piece of the Mercedes-Benz jigsaw fell into place in 1998, when (urged by Deutsche Bank), Daimler-Benz made a merger bid for Chrysler Corporation. The resultant "merger of equals" subsequently fell apart and Chrysler was purchased by Cerberus.
