Mercedes set to race with AMG banner from 2012

2011-12-13T19:40:00.002+08:00

Mercedes have announced they intend to compete under the full name of ‘Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One Team' from 2012 onwards. AMG is the performance brand of Mercedes-Benz, and has been involved with Formula One for 15 years, supplying the official F1 safety and medical cars since 1996.

Mercedes have also confirmed that their 2012 F1 car, currently under development at the team’s UK factory in Brackley and code-named the F1 W03, will make its track debut at the New Year’s second winter test in Barcelona, Spain, on February 21.

"Our new team name fuses the proud traditions of AMG and the Mercedes-Benz Silver Arrows at the pinnacle of motorsport,” commented Norbert Haug, Vice-President of Mercedes-Benz Motorsport. “These three letters are synonymous with high technology, sporting performance and excitement and this step is a further strong sign of the strategic commitment Mercedes-Benz has made to Formula One.”

Mercedes’ Formula One powertrain facility at Brixworth in the UK has worked closely with AMG for a number of years and this wholly-owned Daimler subsidiary will now be renamed 'Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains'.

"We are very proud to reveal our new team name today,” added team principal Ross Brawn. “It adds another strong performance element to our team's identity and, by virtue of being shared between Brackley and Brixworth, will forge even stronger links within our team. At the factory, we have been focused for some time on the challenge of 2012, and our very clear ambition to move forward up the grid next year.

“As always, the winter development and manufacturing processes are a trade-off between time for finding performance in the factory, and time for delivering that performance during pre-season testing. We believe that the decision to run the car at the second winter test is the optimum compromise for our design and development programme with F1 W03."

AMG has an extensive motorsport pedigree dating back more than 40 years. The Mercedes AMG brand is the most successful in the history of Germany’s DTM touring car series, winning 165 races from 342 since 1988 and securing a total of 32 driver, manufacturer and team titles.

S600 Attempts Puddle Run

2011-12-12T06:18:00.002+08:00

The Mercedes S600 can be described as a top-notch luxury car, Maybach replacement, a chariot for the rich and powerful and many other things. It cannot, however, be described as an offroad vehicle. This rich Russian owner must have missed that last bit, because he tried to demonstrate his S600’s all-round capabilities, with possibly disastrous consequences.

Apart from the acute embarrassment of having a mere Lexus and an Infiniti assist this chariot of kings, the owner is possibly looking at some major dealer service. Some electronics may have shorted as a result of this excursion, and that interior will definitely have to be cleaned. It doesn’t look like the V12 ingested water (which would have wrecked the engine), but a thorough diagnostic checkup is certainly in order. But if you can afford an S600, some dealer service should not bother you. What’s curious is why take a trek through the woods in an S600 when you obviously can afford a first-class offroader like a G55?

Mercedes Gull Wing Group Reunites In SF After 50 Years

2011-07-03T11:31:00.002+08:00

50 years after the original photograph was taken, an assemblage of Gullwing owners, headed by the automobile club the Gull Wing Group, has gathered at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge to recapture the moment. The original group photo was a gathering of owners of Mercedes’ 300 SL. This time, Mercedes-Benz USA lent its considerable reach to bring 100 Gullwings and 300 SL Roadsters to the site of the original photograph.

Also marking the occasion was the announcement of MBUSA’s donation of 125 scholarships intended for local kids who will participate in the San Francisco Recreation and Parks department’s summer camp programs.

MEC Design Preps E 350 CDI

2011-04-23T22:25:00.002+08:00

MEC Design, a Merc tuner out of Berlin, has just tuned a Mercedes-Benz E 350 CDI model to get it ready for a wild romp this summer. A tweaked exhaust system, lowering springs and new tuner-specific wheels make up just the tip of the iceberg for this upcoming release.

Coinciding with the launch of the tuner’s specially designed mecxtremeIII one-piece wheel Spring collection, MEC has fitted these new wheels onto the E 350 CDI. Prospective buyers can opt for any of 8 available finishes for the wheels, including Satin White, Satin Black and Full Matte Black. Additionally, buyers can choose whether or not to go with a stainless steel outer lip for the wheels.

Aside from the hot wheels, MEC got the E 350 CDI closer to the action via some lowering springs rated at 35mm. Additionally, it gets the MEC Design 4 Pipes Rear Muffler with Sound. The tuner could also do some body work on the rear axle.

The 4-pipe exhaust setup is also compatible with the tuner’s rear diffuser. Should you choose to get one, the Plug and Play design will let you get right into the thick of things in no time. The diffuser will arrive in around 4 to 5 weeks, and those interested can choose between a primed version and a Carbon version.

About MEC Design:
MEC Design are an exclusive tuning company based in Berlin, Germany. They specialize in Mercedes-Benz and have an extensive range of extraordinary tuning and styling products as well as a range of high quality 1-piece and 3-piece alloy wheels.

S500 Gets Inden Design Treatment

2011-03-20T20:35:00.002+08:00

It’s always a tough task for tuners to give the Mercedes-Benz S-Class a tuning package, since it naturally already comes with some of the latest and greatest technology you can equip an automobile. Well, tuners are certainly still welcome to try—a challenge that German firm Inden Design was only too happy to accept with the S500.

Inden Design’s treatment will be bridging the gap between the S500 and the S65 AMG, and this is accomplished via some engine, exterior and interior tweaks. Starting things off is a stainless steel exhaust system that helps give the V8 power plant an output of 420 horsepower. Inden Design took the braking system from the S600 and added it to the S500 to compensate for the added power. The tuner also lowered the suspension by some 50mm and fitted 20-inch rims to the tires. Inden also disabled the electronic speed limiter.

The exterior of the Inden S500 features a new rear diffuser, side skirts and front apron. The interior of the car has been fitten with some carbon fiber trim and Alcantara leather. There’s also a new speedometer that reads up to 224 mph.

Rumored C-Class AMG Black Series May Be An M3 Killer

2011-03-12T19:55:00.003+08:00

It has been reported that with the upcoming release of the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the planners at AMG have conceptualized the AMG Black Series variant for this new model, with an introduction scheduled for 2012.

The new C-Class AMG Black Series Coupe will not be sporting the 6.2 liter powerplant from the previous C63. While this may sadden the many aficionados who are enraptured by the glorious sound that engine makes, Mercedes-Benz has decided to opt for the 5.5 liter biturbo V8. As installed in the S63 AMG, this particular engine belts out 571 horsepower with its 664 lb-ft of torque hitting between 2,250 and 5,500 rpm.

Mercedes has claimed that the new C-Class AMG Black Series will be “an M3 killer”. Adding a “mere” 71 horsepower to the previous 6.2’s 500 may not be enough though. But since the 5.5 liter twin turbo engine already powers its bigger siblings, the better power-to-weight ratio afforded by the C-Class platform may do the trick. Having an extra year will give Mercedes-Benz and AMG engineers the extra development time they may need to truly substantiate their claim.

New C-Class model seen with minimal disguise

2010-12-14T18:29:00.004+08:00

Ahead of its launch at the Detroit Motor Show this coming January, the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class coupe has been seen effectively without disguise. The C-class coupe is set to replace the CLK which had a 12-year run consisting of two model generations. With the launch of the C-Class coupe, the sports hatch with the CLC nomenclature will also be discontinued.

Together with its sibling saloon and estate models, the C-Class coupe will sport subtle design changes taken from the larger E-class, such as new headlamps, and new hood and bumper shapes.
Espied changes at the rear of the new models are mostly minor, affecting only the bumpers and taillights.

It is safe to expect the C-class coupe to have an AMG variant down the road that will rival BMW’s M3. Such a move by Mercedes-Benz will also potentially produce an even more hardcore Black Series model. To limit extraneous production and tooling, it would also be safe to expect the coupe to have the same drivetrain configurations that will be available in the saloon and estate models.

There are as yet no rumored plans to produce the C-Class coupe in a cabriolet version.

Is Mercedes-Benz Planning New Ecological Mid-Engine Supercar?

2010-12-03T21:31:00.002+08:00

Mercedes Benz’ concept car the Biome is on the forefront of being developed and expectations are it would be released some time in 2015. It is speculated to be indirect competition of what BMW is developing, their Vision EfficientDynamic car. There is stiff competition now among German car manufacturers, including Audi, for supremacy on eco-friendly motorcars!

The Biome has been featured in the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show Design Challenge, and as we said its looks are very futuristic. Chief of the California design team stated that some elements in the design could easily be developed for production. They just have to make sure that it would either not be too limited and do-able without significant changes.

Chrome Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3

2010-08-20T18:01:00.006+08:00

Straight from its debut at the German Grand Prix, Mercedes shipped the very chrome SLS AMG GT3 race car to the Monterey Peninsula to take part in the week-long Pebble Beach festivities. Other than the obvious chrome wrap job its hard to miss the massive “Laureus” decals. If you’re not familiar with Laureus, the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation works to get kids off the street and away from drugs though sports.
As for the car itself, well, it’s based on the street car and powered by the same 6.2-liter AMG V8 engine. The SLS AMG GT3 gets a six-speed sequential racing transmission and ultra-low curb weight to deliver a 0-60 mph time of just 3.5 seconds. That light-weight body is made entirely of carbon fiber, with impressive new aerodynamics including a massive front splitter, rear diffuser and enormous rear spoiler. Compared to the road car, the GT3’s bodywork is two inches wider, enough to accommodate some massive center locking 18×12-inch front and 18×13-inch rear wheels with racing slicks. Inside those wheels is a special composite AMG race braking system with six-piston front calipers and four-piston rear calipers.

Brand New CLS 2011 Model

2010-08-04T19:02:00.002+08:00

Mercedes-Benz released a statement that they are ending the their production of the first-generation CLS line up. The news preceded earlier reports this month where BMW’s present generation M5 and M6 have also stopped production. Where the E60 M5 remained as the newest in a line that goes back to the mid 80’s and the M6 stamped BMW’s comeback to a favourite badge. The CLS is usually considered as the model that started the four-door coupe trend.
During the time since the E-Class-based CLS was presented in 2004, the four-door coupe variety has experienced the arrival of Porsche Panamera, Aston Martin Rapide, Volkswagen’s Passat CC and the Audi A5 and A7 Sportback models. Mercedes-Benz has sold over 170,000 varieties of the CLS over its seven years in the market, and the last car to exit the line was a black CLS550 that was geared for the US market. Following suite would be the 2011 CLS that is anticipated to be released late this year with a first-rate positioning, thus letting the German carmaker present a second smaller four-door coupe at a lower price.
Based on the preview rendering, it likely shows of the new style of the CLS under the camouflage. Although there are still no reports with regards to the engine, a V6 and V8 options are a possibility, while a hybrid model based on the S400 BlueHybrid technology is projected to be presented after the release.

SLV out, lighter and more efficient

2010-07-12T13:49:00.003+08:00

You already heard of the rumors that Mercedes-Benz is planning on building a smaller version of the SLS. That supposed spin-off would have been called the SLV, sharing the front-engine layout of the Gullwing. But the company decided to forgo that project for something a lot more, shall we say, promising. Mercedes-Benz is still going to work on an SLS derivative, but this time round they’re going to call it the SLM. The M stands for mid-engine. Oh, so NOW you’re listening.

Who would have thought Mercedes-Benz would decide to veer away from the SLS platform and boldly go where so many others have (not?) gone before. Well, at least for this company, a mid-engine super car sounds a little farfetched. Well, only time will be able to tell if it’s going to be a reality. Right now, all we have is a source from AMG saying that creating another front-engine super car would endanger the cash flow being pulled in by the SLS.

So what’s the deal behind the SLM? Lightness and efficiency, apparently. Something to jive with the current trends in the industry. Although the mid-engine layout still puzzles a lot of people, us admittedly. Our source says that it’s the best way not to hurt SLS sales and to be able to rival the Audi R8 and the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Coupe. Sounds promising, don’t you think?

History of Mercedes Benz W201

2010-07-08T18:32:00.007+08:00

The Mercedes-Benz W201 was the last incarnation of the Mercedes-Benz 190 nameplate. It was a sports sedan/compact executive car produced by the Mercedes-Benz division of Daimler-Benz. It was replaced in 1993 by the C-Class.

Dubbed "the Baby Benz", the W201-based 190 was the most affordable model in the marque's lineup, being designed to fill the gap in the range below the W123, the equivalent of a modern Mercedes E-class. Amongst the items that were a first for Mercedes was the 190's patented 5-link suspension at the rear, used in subsequent E- and C- class models, and developments used today in Mercedes road cars. It had front and rear anti-roll bars, and anti-dive, anti-squat geometry. The 190 was available with airbags, ABS brakes and seatbelt tensioners, and other advanced safety features. The 190 is regarded as one of the best Mercedes-benz cars ever made.

£600 million was spent researching and developing this car with Mercedes-Benz acutely aware that a failure of this model could easily bring down the rest of their model range and the entire company’s reputation. Mercedes-Benz later said the 190 was 'massively over-engineered'. The W201-based 190 was introduced in November 1982.

Production of the 190 ended on April 13, 1993. About 1.8 million were produced. It was replaced by the C-Class. The 190 is considered by some to be a classic car, there are a number of owners' clubs.

In spite of their age many 190s can still be seen on roads today.

Prior Design Offers Mercedes-Benz SL Facelift Options

2010-06-07T20:15:00.006+08:00

The newly facelifted Mercedes-Benz SL offers a much more aggressive design. What it also leaves are R230 chassis owners wishing they could revamp their front end to the new generation without forking over the cash for a whole new car. There have been several aftermarket manufacturers that are catering to that market, offering all new front ends – hood, fenders, headlights, front bumper – to convert their SL to match. Prior Design has put their bid in with one of the nicer and more complete kits on the market for those R230 owners looking to rejuvenate their car.

Mimicking the AMG Black Series, Prior Design's SL63 package is aggressive and offers no hint of subtlety to the conversion. Their version of the widebody isn't as aggressive as the AMG Black, offering a fine balance for the daily drivers that aren't looking at screaming for attention. Their demo car also sports a set of aggressively designed wheels that actually fit the overall theme of the car. We can't help but think that it wouldn't be as pretty of a sight if these wheels were on any other car.

History of Mercedes Benz W126

2010-06-02T18:31:00.006+08:00

W126 is the bodycode given to the Mercedes-Benz S-class series, produced from 1979 until 1991. W126 sales were halted in 1992 for the US market. Mercedes-Benz South Africa continued producing them for some years, stopping in 1994.

The car was introduced at the IAA in Frankfurt on september 1979. Most people did not appreciate the design right away. It's appearance differed too much from the rest of the Mercedes fleet at that time. The objective of the design team, lead by Bruno Sacco, was to produce a car that was sleeker, lighter and faster as opposed to the old W116 S-class it was meant to replace. Now, over 20 years after it's first introduction, it is clear they succeeded in designing and building a true classic.

The W126 remained in production for over a decade and it's design still wasn't oldfashioned when production was halted in the early nineties.

The decision to give the W126 a more low-profile look than it's predecessor had been based on the fact that in the late seventies owning a big luxury car was considered self-indulgent and anti-social. The foreseen fuel shortages and rising fuel prices forced Mercedes-Benz to rethink their big-engine strategies and the 'Energy Program' was introduced. Although engine sizes were actually enlarged (the 3.5 liter engine became a 3.8 and the 4.5 became the 5.0) MB argued that the engine sizes were actually decreased because the 5.0 liter engine could replace the 6.9 engine and the 3.8 could replace the 4.5

History of Mercedes Benz W124

2010-05-20T20:25:00.006+08:00

To all W124 lucky owner ,

For your information, W124 is type for E class mercedes-benz that emerged in year 1986-1996.
First car in year 1986 is 300E, E strands for 'Einsprit' means injection. Injection means howthe fire progress at the engine is directly shotted from the fuel pump. The capacity of this car is 3000cc which produced 177horse power. Mercedes-benz also produced 300dD which has a diesel engine with 143 horse power. Both models came with a four-speed automatic as the standard transmission.
The structure was completely revised and, through the use of high-strength steel and other construction methods, was significantly stiffer and lighter. The front suspension still utilized double wishbones but incorporated anti-dive technology; and the rear suspension was now a multilink system, which rode better and improved wheel location throughout its travel. The front grille sloped back for better aerodynamics and there was but a single windshield wiper that, using an eccentric cam, was able to clear that big piece of steeply raked glass all by itself.
For 1987, a 260E sedan joined the W124 model mix in the U.S., powered by a 2.6-liter version of the 300E's straight six rated at 158 horsepower. Also new that year was a station wagon that came only in 300TD turbodiesel form.

The 1988 model lineup included a new, crisply styled 300CE coupe, and a five-speed manual transmission was now offered on 260E and 300E. Considering that just a few years earlier diesels had made up over three-quarters of all Mercedes sold in the United States, the disappearance of diesels from Mercedes' 1988 lineup may have been a surprise. But increasingly severe particulate emissions standards left the company little choice. This also meant that Mercedes was finally selling a gasoline-powered wagon here as a 300TE.

The 1989 model range was virtually unchanged except that the five-speed manual transmission (few of which were ordered anyhow) was gone from the lineup again and a passenger-side front airbag was a new option.

A diesel returned to the 1990 W124 line with the introduction of an all-new 2.5-liter turbocharged inline five aboard the awkwardly named 300D 2.5. The 260E was also inelegantly renamed the 300E 2.6 for no apparent reason. By stealing the DOHC, 24-valve cylinder head from that year's new 300SL roadster, the 300CE's 3.0-liter straight six now made a healthy 217 horsepower. Beyond that, if you wanted Mercedes' 4Matic all-wheel-drive system on your 300E sedan or 300TE wagon, you could get it.

With a new E-Class due for '96, the only substantial change to the '95 line was the elimination of the limited-production E500 due to the emition process. E 500 consumes 1 litre every 4K. This become this model wasn't so wanted by people.
Mercedes benz put "Master Piece" emblem in W124 prodiction '95-'96 which the option become more variatif, cruise control, passanger air bag, and the electric krey also being attached.
Mercedes-benz stopped the W124 model in the mid year 1996, and than mercedes benz produced the new E-class which typed as W211 model.

Hyundai Genesis and Mercedes E-Class are IIHS 2010 Top Safety Picks

2010-05-19T18:29:00.004+08:00

There’s no doubt that a nod from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) will affect a purchasing decision on your next family vehicle. So if you’re living large and luxurious, you’ll be pleased to hear that two large luxury cars earned the IIHS’s 2010 Top Safety Pick awards.

The Hyundai Genesis and the Mercedes E-Class were picked for this prestigious honor. Only vehicles that earn a top rating of good for front, side, rollover, and rear crash protection, and that have electronic stability control can be considered, and both of these cars made the grade.
Hyundai launched Genesis in the 2009 model year, however, it made changes to the roof structure to improve protection in rollover crashes for its 2010 model (the Top Safety Pick award applies to Genesis models built after January 2010).

Even though the Mercedes E class has been around for decades, this is the first time the model that has driven away with IIHS’s top rating. Redesigned for the 2010 model year, changes were made to the padding in the front and rear doors to improve protection in side impact crashes (the Top Safety Pick award applies to E Class models built after March 2010).
