They made their first cars in 1886, the Daimler motor carrage and a motorized bicycle with three wheels. These were the first cars ever built, sometimes making Daimler and Benz &amp;#039;the fathers of the automobile&amp;#039;. An &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Agreement of Mutual Interest&amp;#039;&amp;#039;—which would be valid until the year 2000—was signed on [[May 1]], [[1924]] between [[Karl Benz]]&amp;#039;s [[Benz &amp;amp; Cie.]] and [[Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft]], DMG, which had been founded by [[Gottlieb Daimler]] and [[Wilhelm Maybach]]. Daimler had died in [[1900]] and Maybach had left DMG in [[1907]]. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Both companies continued to manufacture their separate [[automobile]] and [[internal combustion engine]] brands until, on [[June 28]], [[1926]], when Benz &amp;amp; Cie. and DMG formally merged—becoming Daimler-Benz [[Aktiengesellschaft|AG]]—and agreed that thereafter, all of the factories would use the brand name of [[Mercedes-Benz]] on their automobiles. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The inclusion of the name, Mercedes, in the new brand name honored the most important model series of DMG automobiles, the [[Mercedes (car) | Mercedes]] series, which were designed and built by [[Wilhelm Maybach]]. They derived their name from a 1900 engine named after the [[Mércédès Jellinek|daughter]] of [[Emil Jellinek]]. Jellinek became one of DMG&amp;#039;s directors in 1900, ordered a small number of [[race car]]s built to his specifications by Maybach, stipulated that the engine must be named &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Daimler-Mercedes&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and made the new automobile famous through [[motorsports]]. That race car later became known as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Mercedes 35 hp]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The first of the series of production models bearing the name, Mercedes, had been produced by DMG in 1902. Jellinek left the DMG board of directors in [[1909]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The name of Daimler as a brand of automobiles had been sold by DMG—following his death in 1900—for use by other companies, so the new company, Daimler-Benz, would have created confusion and legal problems to include Daimler in its new brand name, and therefore, used Mercedes to represent the DMG interest. [[Karl Benz]] remained as a member of the board of directors of Daimler-Benz AG until his death in [[1929]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Although Daimler-Benz is best known for its Mercedes-Benz automobile brand, during World War II it also created a notable series of aircraft, tank, and submarine engines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[1998]] Daimler-Benz AG merged with the American automobile manufacturer, [[Chrysler Corporation]], and formed [[DaimlerChrysler|DaimlerChrysler AG]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nowadays, Mercedes-Benz are still one of the top brands of cars avaliable. Many vehicle tuning brands are now working with Mercedes, such as [[BRABUS]] and [[AMG]]. But some people feel that the quality of the&amp;#039;Original Automobile&amp;#039; is fading. The interiors of the new cars fell quite cheap and contain hidden plastic. Mercedes say that with their &amp;#039;06 and &amp;#039;07 cars, interior quality will be improved to keep competetive against other German car manufacturers like [[BMW]] and [[AUDI]].&lt;br /&gt;
