Many people are used to attributing cars with the "three-pointed star" logo to Mercedes-Benz brands. As we all know, although there are Mercedes-Benz logos, they can actually be subdivided into five different brands. Let's take a look today.
1, Benz brand
The first one is the most familiar Mercedes-Benz brand, which can be regarded as "the deity". It has many types of cars. Generally speaking, our domestic consumers have more contacts. There are A, B, C, E and S in the field of cars, and GLA, GLB, GLC, GLE and GLS in the field of SUVs.

It is worth mentioning that the logo of Mercedes-Benz can also be divided into two types, one is vertical logo and the other is large logo. At present, the most widely used is the big standard. For example, mercedes benz c, E, S, in addition to the big standard, there are vertical standard models to choose from. The former is younger and the latter is more commercial. There is little difference between the two, but the shape of the grille is different. ?

2.AMG brand
AMG is sure everyone is familiar with it. It is a high-performance brand owned by Mercedes-Benz and its royal refit factory. Many Mercedes-Benz production cars will basically launch the AMG version, and its biggest difference from ordinary Mercedes-Benz is its stronger power performance.
Of course, most people can only stop at their high prices because of their full import status and high-end customized services.
A major feature of AMG is that the engine nameplate on AMG models has the signature of the engineer. This name shows that this engine was trained by this engineer and represents AMG's famous concept of "one person, one machine".
Of course, not all AMG models can follow the principle of "one person, one machine", such as the first AMG model made in China last year. A35L has no such logo. And will usher in the second AMG domestic model-GLB. As for whether domestic AMG is Mercedes-Benz AMG, there is still considerable controversy at present.

3. Maibakh brand
Maibakh, which once competed with Bentley and Rolls-Royce, was originally an independent German luxury brand, but it was acquired by Mercedes-Benz due to poor management. 20 14 years became its sub-brand. The first model is the Maibakh S-class, based on the ordinary Mercedes-Benz S-class.
You can regard Maibakh S-Class as the ultimate top match of Mercedes-Benz S-Class. The former is not only more expensive than the latter, but also superior in body size, luxury interior and power performance.

What makes AMG unique is that there are not many Mercedes-Benz models in Maibakh, and only flagship products such as S-Class and GLS can compete with it. Nowadays, Mercedes-Benz logos are hung on cars in Maibakh. The difference in appearance can be identified by the double M logo on the C-pillar or the English logo "Maibakh" on the rear of the car.
4. EQ brand
If you are familiar with the first three brands, it is reasonable. And the fourth EQ brand, it is estimated that many people know less. It is actually a sub-brand of electric vehicles owned by Mercedes-Benz, mainly focusing on the direction of new energy. He was founded for a short time, and it was not until 20 18 that the brand's first mass production model, EQC, was officially released.
The new car is positioned as a pure electric medium-sized SUV, which has been made in China. * * * There are three models, the maximum cruising range of NEDC is 4 15km, and the price range is 499,800-622,800 yuan. According to the news released by Mercedes? Emotional intelligence? Will there be EQA and EQB in this series? And then what? EQS？ Waiting model.
5.g brand
Does this name look familiar? Yes, it is the Mercedes-Benz G-Class that many cross-country fans are thinking about. Some time ago, Mercedes-Benz has officially announced that the G-Class will become a new sub-brand independently, and will jointly launch brand-new electric vehicles with AMG and Maibakh in the future.
In other words, after the 2.0T version of G350, we will see the G-class pure electric version in the near future. It is speculated that the pure electric version of Mercedes-Benz G-Class will be named EQG in the future. As for the off-road performance of the new car, we might as well continue to look forward to it.

summary
The above five brands are actually five sub-brands of Mercedes-Benz. Although they all have logos of Mercedes-Benz, their positioning is still different. According to the official, AMG focuses on "sports and performance", Maibakh focuses on "exquisiteness", Mercedes-Benz focuses on "modernity", G brand focuses on "off-road adventure" and EQ brand positioning is "progressive luxury".
Speaking of this, some people may think of Mercedes-Benz "smart", which used to be a sub-brand of Mercedes-Benz and now has no place. Due to long-term losses, Mercedes-Benz sold half of its shares to Geely last year, and smart will meet you as a joint venture company in the future. I just don't know if the system without Mercedes can rejuvenate.
There is no doubt that the automobile industry has experienced "unprecedented changes" in the past few years. As a century-old shop, Mercedes-Benz really needs to change, boldly digital transformation, and actively embrace youth and technology. See the trend clearly, understand what demand means, and then "subvert" yourself. What do you think of such a Mercedes? Welcome to pay attention to "automobile territory without borders", and more automobile-related knowledge is waiting for you.
