Post by Mercedes-Benz AG

A century of excellence. 100 years ago, the brand Mercedes-Benz began to take shape with its global appeal: what was then Daimler-Benz AG was founded on 28 and 29 June 1926. One milestone was the registration of a very special trademark on 21 August 1926: the Mercedes star of Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft (DMG) encircled in the laurel wreath of Benz & Cie., incorporating the word marks “Mercedes” and “Benz”. Since 1926, the Mercedes-Benz brand has stood for technical excellence, the utmost quality, a distinctive design language and pioneering innovation. Exactly 100 years later, the largest model offensive in the brand’s history is taking place. At the same time, Mercedes-Benz is celebrating 140 years of innovation since the invention of the automobile. To mark the occasion, a transcontinental journey is underway – with three new S-Class saloons driving to 140 destinations worldwide.
