Gottlieb Daimler came up with the 4-stroke engine with the added efforts of Wilhelm Maybach. After, when Daimler was now assigned to work in Unterturkheim, he started to build and raced his created cars. This is the reason why he met Emil Jellinek, an Australian dealer. Emil Jellinek was very much interested in the works of Daimler. He even won several races with the use of Daimler’s cars. His cars were all named after his daughter, Mercedes.

In 1920s, automobile industry’s adversity resulted in the merging of Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler’s companies. The partnership came up with the first invention of Mercedes cars and trucks in 1926.
