As far as Mercedes-Benz is concerned, crafting top-of-the-line vehicles is only the beginning of their success story. Not only do they care about their customers, but their employees, dealerships, and local community members, as well. They've been active in the communities they effect for nearly as long as they've been building cars - that's over 100 years of going good for the people who support them. As they explain, "In the end, what...

When you stop into Mercedes-Benz of Chicago for a test drive, you'll find a whole lineup of world-renowned, uniquely designed, and above all, copyright protected new Mercedes-Benz models.

Copyright protected? Yes, that's exactly what we said. For example, the original creators of the SL-Class SL300 with gullwing doors handed all rights over to Daimler AG just about 60 years ago, and they own them to this day. This is the case with all...

When it comes to your kids, the day it's time to start teaching them how to drive is probably one of the most stressful. Not only do we worry about our own kids getting behind the wheel as they get older, but the team here at Mercedes-Benz of Chicago, sees quite a few parents come in with their young drivers. Mercedes-Benz knows how stressful this can be, too - especially considering all of the distractions...

When you think of Mercedes-Benz, you probably think of all of the power pumping away underneath the hood of luxury cars like the Mercedes-Benz C-Class or the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. But, the German automaker is good at more than powerful engines and stunning designs - they're also an industry leader in cutting carbon emissions and providing people with commuting options that are easier on the environment.

With that in mind, we'd like to introduce you...

As an adult, you probably rarely ride in the backseat of your car. But you must have, at least once in your life, encountered the frustration that is the lost seat buckle. You get in the car, and you pull the belt across your lap, only to realize that you can't find the second part of the equation: the buckle itself. It's settled way down between the cushions, and you can dig for...

Trying to find your seat belt buckle can be one of the most annoying things about getting in a car. There are many people who throw caution to the wind and forgo the seat belt altogether. Not wearing your seat belt can be one of the deadliest decisions a person can make when driving or riding in a car. Mercedes-Benz has developed active seat belt buckles in an effort to help drivers and passengers buckle…

Sneak Peak at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show

When the world saw the first SL-Class in 1954, its lightweight, aerodynamic body did more than set a new standard. It served proof that icons are born from lasting brilliance. Today, the advanced engineering and timeless proportions of the SL-Class convey the thrill of acceleration, the acceleration of progress, and the enduring soul of a sports car.

The New 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class was introduced at the Detroit Auto Show and
has now made its way. . .

The 2012 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class, available now at Mercedes-Benz on Chicago, has a sleek and timeless shape to its body and we are very happy to be celebrating the 60th anniversary of this car!

Mercedes-Benz is celebrating the SL-Class model's 60th anniversary by reviving one. . .

2011 has officially closed and the question everyone wants answered, at least die-hard Mercede-Benz enthusiasts, is: How did the Tri-Pointed Star perform? The answer: Very, very well - especially in the SUV/CUV segment.

Thanks largely to robust demand from consumers in China and America, Mercedes-Benz achieved an impressive 24.3-percent increase in SUV/CUV sales for 2011 compared to 2010. The vehicle that saw the strongest demand? The Mercedes-Benz R-Class, demonstrating a jump of over…

As the saying goes: With every door that closes another opens. That's the case with the sad news of Mercedes-Benz sending their elite Maybach brand to the chopping block in 2013. Of course, like any Mercedes-Benz enthusiast in the Chicago area, we sorry to see the 57 and 62 go. However, the blow is softened with the promise of the fifth-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class (i.e., S350 Blue TEC 4MATIC Sedan, S400 HYBRID Sedan, S550…
