The Mercedes-Benz F 100 was a concept car that was unveiled by the German automaker in 1991. It was a futuristic, four-door sedan that was designed to showcase the company’s vision for the future of transportation.
One of the most striking features of the F 100 was its unusual design, which was unlike any other car on the road at the time. It had a sleek, aerodynamic body with sharp lines and angular features, and it was equipped with a number of advanced technologies that were intended to improve safety and convenience for drivers.
These technologies included gas-discharge headlights, which provided brighter and more efficient lighting than traditional halogen bulbs, as well as a voice recognition system that allowed drivers to control various functions of the car using their voice. The F 100 was also equipped with an electronic tyre pressure monitoring system and a chip card system that replaced traditional car keys.
In addition to these advanced features, the F 100 was also designed to be environmentally friendly. It had two square meters of solar panels on the roof that generated up to 100 watts of electricity, and it was equipped with a system that could warn drivers about imminent hazards on the road.
While the Mercedes-Benz F 100 was a highly innovative concept car, it never entered production. However, many of the technologies that it introduced went on to be used in passenger cars produced by the company over the following decade.

Bernd Rosemeyer was a legendary racing driver who achieved great success in the 1930s, driving for the German automaker Auto Union. He was known for his skills behind the wheel of the company’s mid-engined single-seater race cars, which were among the most formidable vehicles of their time. Tragically, Rosemeyer was killed in a land speed record attempt in 1938, at the age of just 28.
