RENNtech introduces new performance package for the SLR – with 740hp

Muamer Hodzic June 24, 2008

When Mercedes-Benz introduced its SLR McLaren 722, there was a bit of confusion about the special-edition’s name. Many believed the car would offer a fire-breathing, 722 hp supercharged V8, but it doesn’t (it makes 650 hp). Some believed that “722” meant there would be 722 of the cars made … but that was wrong, too. In the end, the 722 badge actually referred to 7:22AM – the starting time of Sterling Moss’ epic 1955 Mille Miglia run in a then-new Mercedes SLR. The guys at RENNtech were not impressed by the naming convention, nor by the 650hp that the SLR was producing. In April of last year, they introduced a… Continue Reading »

Mercedes Benz halts production for Euro 2008 semifinal match

Muamer Hodzic June 24, 2008

A Mercedes-Benz owned Truck manufacturing plant in Turkey, Aksaray province, will seize production at 9 pm on Wednesday due to the Euro Cup 2008 semifinal soccer match between Turkey and Germany. While many would consider this an unusual act of generosity by the employer, you probably don’t know how important soccer is to the Turks. No doubt that this will be a huge moral boosted to all the employees, especially if the Turkish team beats the Germans in the semifinal match. The company’s director, Hans Ulrich Maik, said all laborers will be able to watch the game at their homes and that production will start again with the morning shift… Continue Reading »

The history of the gasoline engine at Mercedes-Benz

Muamer Hodzic June 24, 2008

The four-stroke gasoline engine was the heart of the first modern automobile designed by Gottlieb Daimler and Carl Benz in 1886. Independently of one another, the two pioneers developed small, high-speed engines, based on Nikolaus Otto’s four-stroke principle, for the drive system of new automobiles. Since the use of these engines in the Benz patent motor car and Daimler’s motor carriage, the four-stroke gasoline engine has experienced unparalleled development. With their constant innovation, Daimler AG and its predecessor companies have played an important role in the success story of this internal combustion engine for more than 120 years. It is thanks to their tireless work that the single-cylinder power unit… Continue Reading »

Mercedes-Benz gasoline engines in research and motor sports

Muamer Hodzic June 24, 2008

The models from S to SSKL were still used with the same engines in races and in private motoring. This very close relationship between racing engines and production engines changed in the 1930s at the latest, with the Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix cars known as the Silver Arrows and the contemporary record cars. Later on, research vehicles were also still fitted with gasoline engines which were not directly carried over to production in this form. However, the lessons learned from research and motor sports were always of great importance for future developments in engine design at Mercedes-Benz. The age of the Silver Arrows The ability of the Mercedes-Benz engineers to continually… Continue Reading »
