	Karl Benz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Benz and Daimler firms merged to form Daimler-Benz in 1926 -- the company's cars since then are called Mercedes-Benz (named after his daughter: Mercedes).
		Benz designed not only his engine, which was a single-cylinder, water-cooled, 958 cm³, 0.75 hp (560 W) unit, but the whole three wheeled vehicle, which was first driven through Mannheim in 1885 by his wife Bertha Benz.
		He is generally regarded as one of the inventors (with contemporary Gottlieb Daimler) of the petrol-powered automobile.

	Mercedes-Benz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach, who together invented the four-stroke engine, worked together in Cannstatt (a city district of Stuttgart); Benz had his shop in Mannheim near Heidelberg.
		The rival companies of Daimler Motorengesellschaft and Benz and Cie.
		In the early 1900s, the Daimler cars built at Untertürkheim (also a city district of Stuttgart) were raced successfully by an Austrian dealer named Emil Jellinek, who entered the cars under the name of his daughter, Mercédès.

		Daimler was so successful in improving the engine that in 1885 it was installed for the first time in a"riding car" (the first motorcycle), one year later in a boat and finally, in 1886, in a carriage.
		Karl Benz was born on 25th November 1844 in Karlsruhe, the son of an engine driver.The middle of the last century, when Benz was an apprentice, was a time of widespread fascination with the"new technology".
		Henceforth, Daimler devoted his attention to the four-stroke engine, which had to be made still smaller, lighter and more efficient to increase its field of application and its suitability for mobile use.

		Despite the fact that Daimler and Benz (and later on Daimler-Benz) made a variety of products, the cars were always the great standard bearers as far as the public was concerned.
		From the initial discussions in January, to the close of the merger in November, 1998 marked the year Daimler-Benz and Chrysler agreed to combine their businesses in a "merger of equals".
		Daimler and Maybach had also developed and patented the first vee-twin engine, a 4-speed gearbox with gated linkage, a jet-type carburetor (still the basis for modern carburetors), and the first motorcar with a front-mounted engine - a significant step beyond the limited styling of the "horseless carriage".

		In 1923 Benz conceived the famous Tropfenwagen which was the first mid-engined racing car the world had ever seen but by then Benz would soon become part of Daimler-Benz and the car would not be further developed.
		Jellinek also contributed the Mercedes name to the Daimler cars figuring this non-German sounding name would be more popular with the French buying public.
		It was Daimler engines that propelled Panhard and Levassor cars to victory in the first city-to-city events but it was an ex-Austro-Hungarian diplomat by the name of Emil Jellinek that convinced them of the benefits of racing their own cars to publicize their engineering qualities.

		When Daimler and Benz joined to ward off financial ruin in bad times (1924), the Benz laurel wreath and the Mercedes star were superimposed with both names to form the badge still in use today.
