What Kind of Person Drives a Mercedes?

Since the founding of the Mercedes-Benz company in 1926, the brand has been known for its luxurious, high-quality vehicles. 

Among the first people ever to own Mercedes were members of the early billionaire Rockefeller and Morgan families, and Mercedes drivers today aren’t all that different from those early adopters. What characterizes people who drive Mercedes?

Innovation

From the beginning, Mercedes drivers have valued innovation. Devotees of the company will know how Karl Benz (one of the namesake founders) created the first internal combustion engine in a car. 

With that context in mind, the first Mercedes drivers weren’t just trying out a new brand, many of them were trying out their first-ever automobile and a whole new mode of transportation. 

Today, Mercedes owners still value that driving spirit of innovation, and the brand has produced a number of the most important innovations for the auto industry including the crumple zone, the airbag, and pre-safe braking. 

Luxury

Mercedes drivers are also known to love luxury. A Mercedes Benz driver is the type of person to enjoy a round of golf, a nice dinner, and a carefully chosen bottle of wine. 

In terms of the luxury cars they prefer, their good taste applies both to the interior and exterior of the vehicle. Mercedes cars are beloved for their sleek and stylish exteriors, which are always classy and fashionable. 

The inside of a Mercedes is crafted carefully for maximum comfort, and a luxurious feel starts with the highest quality materials, like Nappa leather hides sourced from southern Germany and hand-selected rare woods. 

Precision

People who drive Mercedes are meticulous, detail-oriented people, who are not easily distracted and pay close attention to the small details. Their attention is rewarded in the fine craftsmanship of Mercedes. 

Many parts of a Mercedes interior are finished by hand, like the wood trim that is hand-finished for that professional glossy look. Mercedes makes their cars very customizable, and these customizations are carried out by around 250 artisans at the Modern Luxury Workshop Sindelfingen, Germany with the utmost care. 

Engines, transmissions, suspensions, braking systems, you name it, are all calibrated to a high degree of precision to guarantee maximum performance at all times.
