I-Mercedes-Benz Model S yaphawula ukuqala kwempumelelo ye-brand yaseJamani kwi-motorsport. Ephuhliswe ngesiseko seModeli K (1926), i-Model S inenjongo yokubonisa amandla abaqulunqi beMercedes-Benz kunye neenjineli ekuphuhliseni imoto ekwazi ukudlula ukhuphiswano kumzila.
Uphuculo ngaphezu koModel K lwalubalulekile. Ibhloko ene-6789 cc-cylinder block ene-6789 cc-550 cc ngaphezulu xa kuthelekiswa nemodeli yemveliso-yaqala ukuhambisa i-180 hp yamandla (engaphezulu kwe-20 hp) kwaye yabekwa nge-30 cm emva, nto leyo enegalelo kulwabiwo olungcono lobunzima . Ukuthetha ngobunzima, i-injini ifakwe kwi-230 kg ye-chassis elula.
Eyokuqala yeMercedes-Benz "iindlovu ezimhlophe"
Ukunikezelwa kokuphuculwa kobugcisa, i-Mercedes-Benz Model S yayilungele uvavanyo lokuqala. Ugqatso lwenzeka kwi-Nürburgring esanda kwakhiwa ngoJuni 19, 1927, kugqatso lokuqala lweemoto zemidlalo (kwinqanaba le-5,000 + cc).
Imodeli yeMercedes-Benz S
Ngomqhubi wembali waseJamani uRudolf Caracciola kwivili, iModel S iphumelele ugqatso, phambi komlingane wakhe u-Adolf Rosenberger - naye uqhuba iModel S. Kulo lonke ugqatso, uCaracciola uzuze umlinganiselo wesantya se-101.1 km / h.
Olu khuphiswano lwenzeka kuwo omabini amacandelo e-Nordschleife kunye ne-Südschleife. Kolu lungelelwaniso, oluye lwasebenza iziganeko eziphambili kwisiphaluka de kwangowe-1929, “ Nürburg-Ring” yayinobude obuziikhilomitha ezingama-29.
Namhlanje, iModel S ibonwa njengeyokuqala "iindlovu ezimhlophe" zeMercedes-Benz. Ngaphezulu kwesalathiso kumbala apho iimoto zokhuphiswano zaseJamani zapeyintwa khona, eli gama (elingenabubele, liyinyani…) lanikwa ngabalandeli bemoto kwiMercedes-Benz S Series (S, SS, SSK, SSKL) ukufuzisela “umgqumo. ” yecompressor yevolumetric kunye nendlela iimoto zemidlalo ezazilawula ngayo ukhuphiswano ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yee-1920s nasekuqaleni kweminyaka yee-1930.
Emva kokuqala kwayo kwiNürburgring, iModel S yaqhubeka iphumelela imidyarho kulo lonke elaseYurophu, kwaye impumelelo yayo kumzila yabangela umdla wabathengi abaninzi babucala. Ngendlela eyathi iModel S yeza esandleni sabona bakhi bomzimba badumileyo ngelo xesha, abavelisa ezabo iinguqulelo. I-Mercedes-Benz Model S yatshintshwa kunyaka olandelayo nge-SS kunye ne-SSK (W06) kuluhlu lwe-Mercedes-Benz.
