Mercedes-Benz is a German brand name of automobiles, coaches, buses, and trucks created for Daimler-Benz AG and now owned by DaimlerChrysler AG. The Daimler-Benz Company originated on June 28, 1926 when two companies namely Benz & Cie and Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft (DMG) the inventors of the automobile merged.

Mercedes-Benz is the brand name applied to the models of one of the premier automotive manufacturers in the world and, because of its tie to Karl Benz; it is the name of the world's oldest continuously produced automobile line. In 1926 when the new company, Daimler-Benz was established through merger, a new logo was created that would include a symbol for each and integrate the names of the two former companies. Gottlieb Daimler designed a three-pointed star, to show the ability of his motors for land, air, and sea use. This star first appeared on a DMG model in 1909 and so it was chosen for the new logo. However the brand name Daimler was changed after the death of Daimler in 1900, and allowed to be used on other automobiles, so the name of its seminal Mercedes model was chosen for the DMG portion of the logo. The conventional laurel symbol of Karl Benz was added along with his name to complete the new logo. The logo with a plain ring, as seen today, was not used until the year, 1937.

Mercedes-Benz automobiles have introduced many technological and safety features. It was in 1998, when Daimler-Benz and Chrysler decided to combine their businesses - known as the "merger of equals", that a new entity, DaimlerChrysler AG was created.

Mercedes-Benz automobiles are available at dealerships in over 130 countries and their work fleets are available from a select group of dealers worldwide as well as the factory-direct. As with several European brand automobiles, Mercedes has offered a European delivery option for purchasing a Mercedes Benz automobile. Mercedes' European delivery program varies depending upon where the purchase is finalized.
