The history of Mercedes-Benz refitting AMG?
The history of Mercedes-Benz AMG begins with 1967 in the last century. Two Germans, Hans Werner Aufrecht and Eberhard Melcher, started their refitting business in a small town in Germany called Grosaspach. The origin of the name "AMG" comes from these three. Mr. Aufrecht and Mr. Melcher and the first letter of the local name were born! Mr. Aufrecht used to be an engine tester and trainer in an automobile factory called Daimler Benz, so he knew the engines of Mercedes Benz like the back of his hand.

abstract

Of course, like many European refitting plants, their initial business was mainly racing cars, and helping customers refit vehicles was only a sideline. 197 1 year, AMG won the second place in the Belgian SPA 24-hour endurance race with a "300SEL 6.9 AMG" racing car, and the company's reputation also started at this time. 1978, the then flagship sports car, code name R 107 (that is, the predecessor of R 129), was developed by AMG as a chariot for the European touring car race, and it was the second time that AMG made its mark on the racing track. Although the achievement has not yet reached the highest podium, it is still not enough for the exclusive enjoyment of M.Benz. 1980, 450SLC finally won the first championship on the nurturing track, which is also a milestone for AMG on the track.

Edit the development process of this paragraph.

At the end of 1980s, it was also the time when AMG entered the market of civil modified cars. In recent years, AMG has continuously introduced high-performance finished cars and gained a good reputation in the modified car market. If you want to talk about one of them, you have to mention this car. It is a high-performance sports car introduced by 1986: 300E 5.6 AMG, with frame code C 124 and horsepower of 360. At the same time, in the 1980s, AMG did not blindly pursue high-power and high-performance engines. They began to add aerodynamic kits, wheels, ornaments and other modified products to their own brands to meet the increasingly booming modified market.

Mercedes-Benz AMG model (10) 1993, AMG officially became a subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz, and introduced C36 which can be sold in the global Mercedes-Benz sales network for the first time. Later, Mercedes-Benz acquired AMG in full at 1999. Since then, AMG has become a high-performance streetcar modification department under the M.Benz Automobile Factory. However, it should be reminded that the current AMG is not the racing department of Mercedes-Benz, because AMG itself does not have a racing department. The racing car with AMG brand we are seeing now is actually made by another company named HWA Co., Ltd. founded by Mr. Hans Werner Auffray Hurt, the founder of AMG, and then sold to AMG, and then appeared as AMG products! As for the civilian cars modified by AMG at present, it covers almost the whole series of Mercedes-Benz cars, from small A-class, B-class and C-class to medium-sized E, CLK, SLK and CLS, and then to large-scale S, SL, CL, M, G and R, and there are many kinds of modification projects. As a leader in brand modification, I believe that strength and quality are no longer a problem.

The glorious history of Mercedes-Benz AMG

1967, Hans Werner Aufrecht(A) and Erhard Melcher(M) established the AMG company in Grossaspach(G), Germany, with 500 employees and an annual output of about 12000 vehicles. In 1970s, AMG achieved great success, and made many racing cars and high-performance streetcars on the basis of Mercedes-Benz, but it was not until 1988 that AMG became an important force in manufacturing high-performance cars. That year, AMG established a strategic partnership with Mercedes-Benz, and Mercedes-Benz began to return to the German car tour and other events. The first car jointly developed by the two companies was C36 AMG produced in 1993. Now Mercedes-Benz promises to produce its AMG models on every Mercedes-Benz. The tradition of emphasizing high performance, especially the application of high-power engines, and the unique concept of limited supply of cars by M and AMG will drive fans all over the world crazy and create eternal glory for companies like M and AMG. Earlier, AMG mainly built some racing cars on the basis of Mercedes-Benz 300 SE to participate in the European Tour. But in order to win, the company also experienced a long wait, and the first breakthrough on the field was at 197 1. A Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 modified by AMG won the championship in the same class in the 24-hour race of the famous Spa track in Belgium, ranking second in overall. The drivers at that time were Hans Haier and his teammate Clemes Hickendanz. It was later proved that the success of 197 1 was a turning point for AMG to achieve enviable results on the track.
