What Does “AMG®” Represent?

Broken down, the letters A, M, and G represent the initials of the engineers who pioneered AMG® performance over 50 years ago: Aufrecht, Melcher, and Großβaspach. They shared a dream of building racing engines for Mercedes-Benz models, and their dream was realized when the Mercedes-Benz AMG® division of vehicles was unveiled. AMG® may literally stand for those engineers who were inspired to take Mercedes-Benz to the next level, but the AMG® name and logo also represent bold design, cutting-edge technology, and peerless performance.
