Mercedes Benz story - After the merger of Daimler and Benz in 1926, the new Daimler-Benz group was able to effectively use the experience and knowledge of the designers of both companies, headed by Ferdinand Porsche. He completely updated the production program, taking as a basis not only the logo of Mercedes Benz, but also the latest models of Daimler, now produced under the brand name Mercedes-Benz. The first new development of the Porsche in 1926 was the "compressor" series. For its high power and speed (up to 145 km/h) it was called a "death trap". It became the base for the more famous S series.
In 1930, there was a Grosser Mercedes , or Mercedes-Benz-770 with an 8-cylinder 200 hp engine. In 1931, the company debuted in the sector of small cars, where it was represented by a very successful Mercedes-170 with a 6-cylinder engine, with an independent front wheels suspension.
In 1933, a passenger car Mercedes-200 and a sports Mercedes-380 with 2.0 - and 3.8-liter engines were presented. Based on the sports model in 1934, the Mercedes-500K with a 5-liter engine was created. MB Parts
