Car articles about Mercedes-Benz 220 Cabriolet B by year
The Stuttgart-based manufacturer sold 1278 Mercedes Benz 220 Cabriolet A models between 1951 and 1955, several dozen of which were used by Japanese artist Hiro Yamagata as the background for his "Earthly Paradise" series. This report portrays one of the valuable works of art and briefly summarizes the history and technology of the Mercedes 220 A Cabriolet.
Between 1951 and 1955, not quite 1300 Mercedes Benz 220 Cabriolet A/B left the factory near Stuttgart. Some of the chassis built were passed on to coachbuilders without bodies. The Wendler company wrapped several of these chassis. This resulted in elegant convertibles in the style of the time. This report portrays a Mercedes Benz 220 Wendler Cabriolet from 1952 and summarizes the history of the Wendler company.
From 1951 to 1958, Mercedes built the 300 S/Sc as a Cabriolet, Roadster and Coupé. These luxury cars embodied the ultimate in comfort without being unsportsmanlike. In fact, industrialists also liked to drive these vehicles over long distances, which they could cover with high averages. This report portrays a 300 S Cabriolet A from 1954 and also shows it and its brothers in historical illustrations.
Only the name remained from the previous 220 model: from 1954, the Mercedes-Benz 220 was presented with a modern pontoon body, revised engine and improved chassis. The new single-joint swing axle at the rear in particular increased driving safety to a previously unknown level. The six-cylinder engine was significantly more elastic than before. This historical test report provides a more detailed verdict.
