Do you know Daimler and Benz, progress in the design and development of the automobiles was seldom a problem. After all they invented it. In the 1920s daimler and Benz, both individually and together, set the standards for the world with cars such as the 200hp Blitzen benz and staggering 300hp SSKL. They were building automobiles with fully independent suspensions, and when the rest of the automotive world was producing boxy sedans, stodgy couples with enough chrome. Daimmler-Benz was introducing the sleek, aerodynamic 300SL, a car almost devoid of chrome.
