Aprašymas
In March 1969, the news that Daimler-Benz was developing a Wankel rotary-engine sports car hit like a bomb. Six months later, the C 111 was the star of the Frankfurt International Motor Show. Despite tremendous interest, Mercedes never put the vehicle into production. Various C 111s appeared over the next decade, featuring different engines, tweaked aerodynamics, and other modern developments.
Based on unprecedented access to the Mercedes-Benz Group Archives, this is a comprehensive history of the C 111 program.
- Includes 1,100 photos and diagrams in 520 pages
- Features previously unpublished interviews with the people behind the car.
- Documents the Vision One-Eleven show car inspired by the C 111 and unveiled in June 2023.
This volume was made possible by the direct collaboration of Mercedes-Benz AG and three expert authors--a former engineer who worked on the C 111, a 30-year employee of the Mercedes-Benz Classic division, and automotive writer Joachim Hack.
