How do Mercedes-Benz get their names?
Mercedes-Benz’s naming strategy is built around four core models—A, C, E, and S—which serve as the foundation for its global nomenclature, though availability varies by market. For instance, in North America, the C-Class includes sedan, coupe, and cabriolet variants under the same designation. Beyond these core models, additional letters refine vehicle characteristics. The “CL” in models like the CLS and CLA signifies 4-door coupes, blending elegance with practicality. The “SL” prefix, found in the SLC and SL, designates roadsters, emphasizing sportiness and open-air driving. Notably, the SLK Roadster was rebranded as the SLC under this system.
