THE MERCEDES-BENZ 500 AND 540K "Designed for the network of high-speed Autobahns that was spreading across Germany in the 1930s, the Mercedes-Benz 500K represented the ultimate in automotive engineering in its day. Technically, it was fitted with all-round independent suspension by swing axles and an unusual gear shift, with the direct drive top semi-automatically engaged. The unique system of supercharging used by Mercedes-Benz was derived from the company's experience in aero-engine design, where a system of "at will" supercharging had enabled World War I German aircraft to gain a performance advantage by boosting engine power at altitude." "The straight-eight 5,018 cc 500K, which was a development of the superchargedKompressorline that had begun with the 380K of 1932, was an exclusive and powerful model for an equally exclusive and powerful clientele. Developed by chief engineer of Mercedes-Benz, former racing driver Dr. Hans Nibel, the 500K was introduced in 1934 and only 354 chassis were built of all styles before the model was superseded by the 540K: 105 in 1934, 190 in 1935 and 59 in 1936." |
