In October 1883, Carl Mercedes-Benz and two business partners jointly founded the Mercedes-Benz Rhine Gas Engine Factory (renamed Mercedes-Benz in 1899) and quickly achieved success. With the increasing market demand for fixed engines, Mercedes-Benz Rhine Gas Engine Factory has relocated and expanded its plant area. In May 1890, with the addition of new partners, the company grew into Germany's second largest engine manufacturer and became the world's leading automaker at the turn of the century.

The gas engine factory has laid a solid economic foundation for Mercedes-Benz in financial terms, allowing Carl Mercedes-Benz to work on realizing its automotive vision. However, because the two-stroke engine is too big and heavy to fit on the vehicle, Mercedes-Benz began to put its efforts into the four-stroke engine. Carl Mercedes-Benz fully demonstrates its talent in the field of automotive development. Instead of installing the engine on existing vehicles, he designed the car as a separate monolithic structure with its main components being an engine with a horizontal cylinder and a large horizontal flywheel. Dissatisfied with the single-axle bogie used by the carriage at that time, Carl Mercedes-Benz designed its innovative car with three wheels. On January 29, 1886, Carl Mercedes-Benz won the DRP No. 37435 patent for "car equipped with gasoline engines", which is also considered the birth day of the World Automobile.

Daimler Automobile and Mercedes-Benz were competitors for many years. In May 1924, the two parties formed a joint venture to maintain competitiveness through coordinated design, production technology, procurement strategies, sales and advertising. The marketing of the two major brands "Mercedes" and "Benz" was originally the newly established Mercedes-Benz Automobile Co., Ltd. In June 1926, Daimler-Benz AG was established, marking the integration of two of the world's oldest automakers. The new company showed off its first Daimler-Benz product line at the Berlin Auto Show in October 1926. During this period, the 8/38 horsepower 2.0-liter model (W 02) and 12/55 horsepower 3.0-liter model (W 03) were the first passenger cars jointly developed after the launch of the new brand "Mercedes-Benz". The model was debuted at the auto show.

As the inventor of automobiles, Mercedes-Benz has a glorious history of 135 years, and now the three-pointed star emblem is widely distributed in China. Looking to the future, Mercedes-Benz will continue to offer outstanding products, services and brand experience to the majority of Chinese consumers, and realize its long-term commitment to the Chinese market. At the same time, Mercedes-Benz will continue to practice corporate social responsibilities through the Mercedes-Benz Star-Wishing Fund, actively participate in many social welfare undertakings, and help the healthy and sustainable development of Chinese society.
