Mercedes-Benz is not a luxury car, but the best practical car with durable and first-class performance.
Mercedes-Benz also has two names in China: Mercedes-Benz Waheiji. [Editor's paragraph] Historical introduction Since Mercedes-Benz made the first world-recognized car, more than one hundred years have passed, and the car has already passed its centenary birthday. In the past hundred years, with the development of automobile industry, many automobile manufacturers have emerged, some of which were once prominent, but in the end they were only a flash in the pan. Up to now, only three or four companies have weathered the ups and downs, and only one Mercedes-Benz is a century-old shop.
1. After several changes, the spirit has not diminished.
In 1885 and 1886, Carl and Godlip built their first car. 1883, Carl started a new stove and established Mercedes-Benz in Mannheim. 1890, Godlip established Daimler Automobile Company in Stuttgart. 1894 and 1896, respectively, the two companies launched the world's first gasoline engine bus and the first gasoline engine truck. After the initial competitive development, the economic recession after World War I and the impact of foreign products in the same industry, in order to survive, the two companies joined hands to defend against the enemy, and merged in 1926 to formally establish Daimler-Benz Automobile Company (hereinafter referred to as Mercedes-Benz Company). Although Mercedes-Benz during World War II was also filled with smoke, Mercedes-Benz, which suffered heavy losses, quickly resumed automobile production. /kloc-began to produce trucks in 0/945, and resumed the production of cars in 0/946, gradually restoring the status of the world's top-grade car manufacturers. How many changes and developments reflect the increasingly powerful and prosperous Mercedes-Benz company. 1998, the leader of the company, Juergen Schlempp, decided to merge with American Chrysler Company to form Daimler-Chrysler Company, which became the top of the automobile industry. The world is convinced that Mercedes-Benz will continue to create brilliance in the future automobile development history.
2. True colors of famous brands
Mercedes-Benz, a powerful automobile kingdom, is headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany, with 197000 employees and 193 employees. 1993 realized sales of 59120,000 yuan, and produced about10,000 vehicles annually. There are 14 directly affiliated factories, 35 major subsidiaries and 654,438 sales and service stations in China. What is the secret of such a great success?
First of all, the cars produced by Mercedes-Benz are named after quality. Its quality is tangible. A mid-range Mercedes is more expensive, but it can drive at least 200 thousand kilometers. Change the engine and drive another 200 thousand kilometers, which is not expensive every year. The company's advertisement publicly declared: "If someone finds that a Mercedes-Benz is out of order and is forced to' break down', we will give you $10,000. Mercedes-Benz's safety design is one of the reasons for its reputation. In addition, good service, scientific research and careful manufacturing will further stabilize Mercedes-Benz's leading position in the same industry and maintain its brand-name quality forever.
3. Product names of Austrian nobles
Mercedes-Benz not only has unparalleled quality, but also has a complete range of cars. At present, it mainly produces C-class cars (mid-range cars and sports cars), E-class cars (high-end cars and sports cars), S-class cars (luxury cars and sports cars) and G-type cars (off-road vehicles). The early cars produced by the company are divided into Mannheim version and Stuttgart version. From 1936, both high school and low-grade cars are unified as the same name "Mercedes-Benz". There is a much-told story about this name. 1899, Austrian Consul General in Germany emil jellinek ordered three Daimler Phoenix cars. He named them after his daughter Mercedes, and took part in the Nice Rally and won the third place. Emil thought his daughter's name brought good luck, so he suggested Daimler adopt its name. Daimler also wanted to use this Austrian aristocrat to help it open the Austrian market, so it adopted this name. Unexpectedly, its sales increased greatly. Later established Daimler-Benz Company also named all its products Mercedes-Benz.
4. Cars that embody the essence of company culture
It is no exaggeration to say that every Mercedes-Benz is a wonderful story, and the new E-Class sedan embodies the cultural essence of Mercedes-Benz. Its double oval headlights, which combine aesthetics and high efficiency, make the road surface clear at night, and the smooth and perfect lines reduce the drag coefficient to 0.27, which is agile and fuel-efficient, and can meet the widening impact buffer safety standards of head-on and rear impact forces, far exceeding the most stringent requirements; Wide front seat double airbags and door side airbags give passengers the greatest protection; ABS anti-lock braking system and ETS electronic ground performance auxiliary system further improve the handling performance of the car, and advanced valve technology makes gasoline burn more thoroughly and greatly improves the power efficiency.
Once you have it, you want nothing more.
The newest member of Mercedes-Benz family is the world's first production car with automatic air control system. Its unique "electronic nose" system uses a special air quality sensor. When the pollution outside the vehicle exceeds the standard, the air quality sensor immediately sends a signal to the system computer to automatically close the circulating damper in the ventilation system. Start the high-efficiency activated biomass carbon filter to purify the air and keep the air in the carriage fresh and pleasant. The car also uses rainfall-sensing water lifting, which can automatically adjust the air to keep the water lifting speed according to the rainfall. In addition, the left and right independent air conditioning automatic constant temperature system is more satisfactory. If the temperature inside the car rises due to sun exposure, the sun sensor will automatically start the fan to enhance the air conditioning effect, so that the driver can concentrate on driving.
6. Simple and compact SLK
With the increasing expansion of the high-end sports car market, Mercedes-Benz Automobile Company timely launched SLK series, in which S stands for sports, L stands for lightweight, and K stands for German Courths, which is short for English. Its silver-gray body, bright headlights and water tank grille merge into left and right turn signals, and the short and wide tread constitutes the unique mood of SLK. Its shape gives people a simple and compact visual effect, and the body lines are also deliberately pursuing the smooth and dynamic movement of sports cars.
7. Perfect internal and external configuration
SLK sports car with internal and external repairs is equipped with a 4-cylinder 2.3-liter large supercharged engine, with the highest output horsepower 193 horsepower and fuel consumption of 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers. 0-65,438+000 km/h acceleration time is only 6 seconds, and the top speed is 237 km/h. At the same time, the engine is equipped with a variable valve delay device, which works together with the electronic control magnet to provide oil pressure for a cavity in the camshaft drive chain to make it rotate smoothly. In order to meet the tastes of different car owners, SLK is equipped with a 5-speed electronic control automatic transmission device, which can measure the agility of the driver when using the throttle, and determine the speed change and countermeasures according to the speed change, engine load, cruise control conditions and engine temperature. SLK also has a folding hardtop model, which is undoubtedly a logical idea to advocate a safe climate around the world. The hardtop is stored in the trunk. When the button is pressed, the electro-hydraulic system will put the hardtop on the top cover. In short, the brand-new SLK sports car, brand-new design, outstanding appearance and rich connotation will break anyone's heart when standing in front of it.
8. A rising star in science and technology-Phantom F200
If we talk about the future of cars, let's take a closer look at the new avant-garde star-Mercedes-Benz Phantom F200 concept car, which symbolizes the most advanced technology. When you face it, a novel feeling will arise. The steering wheel, steering column and pedals can't be found in the car. The unique control system is the first model in the F200 car. The driver controls all the actions of the car (including left and right steering acceleration braking) through the side control lever and control system installed on the middle bracket of the door lining, just like sitting in front of the computer amusement machine, everything is surprisingly simple and easy. The new electronic control system, called "line driving" by experts, accepts all instructions from the driver. The electronic control device is connected with the main control suspension (hydraulic cylinder with power adjustment), and the active body control device uses hydraulic cylinder and sensor, which can correct the load conversion of wheels on the road surface, reduce the body roll and reduce the flow to zero. Even in sharp corners, the car body is balanced, which can control the rebound and cushioning performance, make the control safer and drive more comfortable. The F200 car didn't have a rearview mirror, so it was replaced by five cameras, four of which were installed at the four corners of the roof and one on the rear bumper. When reversing, the screen on the dashboard can provide various information such as vehicle speed and fuel, as well as the display contents of navigation computer, TV, video, electronic game machine, CD player and telephone.
It is not difficult to open this convenient and happy "door". A small magnetic card is in your pocket. When you get close to the car, the electronic equipment in the car and the magnetic card are automatically connected to read the code, and the door will automatically open upwards, which is even more magical than the myth of "open sesame". In addition, its new airbag device can expand the curtain airbag from the front of the roof to the rear within 20 milliseconds in case of collision, protecting the safety of all passengers. At the same time, the headlights composed of six independent reflective screens can automatically adjust the light and shade according to the road environment and vehicle speed. Can be said to be hands-on, meticulous.
Mercedes-Benz F200 "Phantom" car is full of innovation and advanced consciousness, showing superb wisdom and technology, which makes the world deeply moved.
9. Ride the battlefield and beat the crowd
Dignity comes from strength. The current World Championship Rally, European Championship Rally, China Rally, etc. More exciting. Not to mention the latest move of Mercedes-Benz, the past history is enough to prove its strength.
In 1930s, Mercedes, known as "Silver Arrow", took the lead in motor racing and made great achievements. 1934, the first truly top-class racing car, the Silver Arrow W25, was launched. It was driven by Devin Lu Carrario, creating a speed of 3 1 1.98 km, and became the champion of the European Championship. After 1937 and 1938 won the championship, the improved W 125 was even better: in the battle of Avis, Hymanland won the championship with an average speed of 26 1.7 km/h, 1937, w/kloc-.
10. super sports car CLK-GTR
The past has become history. The famous cars that once dominated the world have been displayed in the Mercedes-Benz Automobile Museum, and now Mercedes-Benz will launch more powerful racing cars. CLK-GTR in Xin Ying is equipped with a 6.9-liter V-shaped 12-cylinder Mercedes S600 engine, with rated power as high as 4 12 kW (560 HP) and maximum torque of 720 Nm, all of which ensure its excellent speed and traction. The integrated steel rollover protection net and frontal collision room make driving safer. Six-speed transmission device and high-performance tires. For teams and drivers who want to win GT races, the new Mercedes ·CLK-GTR racing car is an absolute ideal choice.
1994, the FIA started a new international GT competition level and named it GT 1. There are almost no restrictions on participating in this level of competition, but the participating car factories produce at least one legal road version of this model. The first GT 1 cars were Dauer 962 of Porsche and F 1 of McLaren. The fatal victory of McLaren's car in Le Mans inspired Mercedes-Benz to design its own GT 1 car.
Unlike McLaren's F 1 model, Mercedes-Benz and AMG jointly design vehicles, first design a racing model, and then produce the road version. It took only 128 days from design to production, and CLGTR made its debut in 1997. Under the carbon fiber hood is the V 12 engine debugged by AMG. Except for the headlights and taillights, there is no place to see that this CLK·GTR has anything to do with CLK.
Compared with Bao Shijie's 9 1 1 GT 1, CLGTR has achieved immediate results. Driven by highly skilled drivers bernd schneider and Klaus Ludwig, CLKTR won victories again and again. 1997 At the end of the season, Schneider was crowned the world champion.
1998 in the first game, two CLGTR participated in the war and both won. In the next eight games, CLKLGTR's substitute CLK·LM won. 1998 and 1999, AMG built 25 limited-edition road GTR models.
