Mercedes-Benz Celebrates 140 Years of Innovation This Year

February 23, 2026

Between 2025 and 2027, Mercedes-Benz presents nearly 40 new or fundamentally redesigned models to the public – from entry-level to top-of-the-range models, with both internal combustion and electric powertrains. This comprehensive product offensive is perfectly timed to coincide with the brand's 140th anniversary. In 2026, Mercedes-Benz Hungária will celebrate this important milestone with the wide-ranging "Mercedes-Benz City" concept, which includes several important stops, including an exclusive exhibition of the Mercedes-Benz Art Collection.

The brand has remained perfectly true to its core values ever since: in 1886, Carl Benz registered the patent for the world's first automobile, the Motorwagen. Since then, Mercedes-Benz has been shaping the future of mobility in the areas of technology, design, digitalization, and customer experience: it is a story of success, innovation, and courage!

The strategy presented at the press event in Budapest focuses on clearly defined goals: further increasing sales, strengthening its position in the top-end vehicle segment, and increasing the share of electrified powertrain (xEV) models, all while maintaining Mercedes-Benz's core values of premium quality, safety, comfort, and driving pleasure.

Domestic sales figures are in line with the Group's strategy: in 2025, passenger car sales grew by 8.7% compared to the previous fiscal year, and revenue increased by 11% from 2024 to 2025. Every third vehicle sold belongs to the Top-End Vehicle segment, and AMG sales account for 20% of TEV. Fully electric models accounted for 9.1% of total sales.

Mercedes-Benz AG's medium-term strategic plans include further growth in the Top-End segment and an even greater share of electrified models, in addition to sales of ~2 million units, all supported by a comprehensive and comprehensive product portfolio that meets all customer needs.

Invitees were also able to see some of the first new models in the revamped portfolio in person.
