Mercedes Accessories Representing the very finest of German luxury, Mercedes offers a well-rounded lineup of elegant yet reliable cars, SUVs, trucks, and buses.
Mercedes models are consistently lauded for their high-quality materials, safety features, and quiet yet powerful performance. The company traces its roots back to 1886, when Karl Benz oversaw the development of the Benz Patent Motor Car, a three-wheeler recognized as the world's first motorcycle. Gottlieb Daimler and engineer Wilhelm Maybach are credited with producing a four-wheeled automobile just several months later using a Daimler engine. By the dawn of the twentieth century, the newfound company's first car was manufactured, taking the name of distributor Emil Jellinek's daughter, Mercedes. In 1926, Daimler-Benz AG was formed, giving birth to Mercedes- Benz. One of the first models produced by the automaker was the SSK in 1928, a fast-paced roadster capable of hitting 120 mph. On its heels was the 770, a luxury sedan equipped with an inline eight-cylinder engine and best known for its role as a parade car for the Nazi party during World War II.

The oil crisis had dug its heels in on the auto industry hitting manufacturers across the board, even Mercedes, despite the success of the 350SL and the introduction of the 450SEL 6.9, a sporty, high-performing version of the S Class. Mercedes rolled out the G Class in 1979, a rugged crossover wagon assembled for militaristic utility but available as a consumer vehicle.
