Join Kushan Mitra, Contributing Editor - Automotive at ThePrint, as he steps inside one of the world's most remarkable automotive shrines: the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart, Germany. Built as a double helix so you walk down through time without ever doubling back, the museum takes you from Karl Benz's original 1886 patent all the way to the electric and AMG models rolling off the line today. Spread across nine levels and over 16,000 square metres, it isn't just a showroom dressed up as a museum — it's the 140-year-old carmaker's institutional memory, with every "Legend" room tracing the technology and design story, paired with a "Collection" room showing off racing glory, the famous Popemobiles, and cars that once carried presidents and film stars. In this video, Kushan gets a rare look at some of the collection's most extraordinary pieces — including a ride in a faithful running replica of the Benz Patent-Motorwagen, the machine Karl Benz patented in 1886 and which the world recognises as the first true automobile. From race-winning silver arrows to heads-of-state limousines, this is why the Mercedes-Benz Museum belongs on every car enthusiast's must-visit list — not just for what the brand builds today, but for how carefully it remembers everything it took to get here. #MercedesBenz #MercedesBenzMuseum #Stuttgart #AutomotiveHistory #ThePrint #KushanMitra #CarMuseum #ClassicCars #germanengineering--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Exclusive content, special privileges & more – Subscribe to ThePrint for Special benefits: https://tinyurl.com/4ymm9wh5 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with ThePrint » Subscribe to ThePrint: https://tinyurl.com/4ymm9wh5 » Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/3nCMpht » Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theprintindia » Tweet us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/theprintindia » Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theprintindia » Find us on LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/company/theprint » Subscribe to ThePrint on Telegram: https://t.me/ThePrintIndia » Find us on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2NMVlnB » Find us on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3pEOta8
