Mercedes 125 Aesthetics: the turning point

On January 29, Mercedes has celebrated 125 years of the submission of its first vehicle, the date which marked the birth of the automobile, proposing a sculpture of a prototype, the Aesthetics 125, which foreshadows what will be the brand's future design language . On this occasion, Mercedes has also announced the upcoming launch of breakthrough technology in the battery industry and the start of the first attempts of the House to investigate the possibility of using hydrogen as fuel in the future: that's why he organized a journey of around 125 days the world of three Mercedes B-Class F-Cell to confirm the technical viability of these cars with zero-emission fuel cells.

As for the new technology for lithium ion batteries, Mercedes has already submitted a patent. This is a single battery cell more compact and more efficient than current batteries used on electric cars. According to the statements of the House this technology is still under development at Daimler and potentially represents a further step towards the industrial production of lithium-ion battery.

The Aesthetics 125, development of the two proposals made above, is the materialization of the philosophy espoused by Mercedes that design is art, this sculpture combines internal and external elements implementing a bold step of forms and spaces. The model was built using an innovative technology that allows you to directly transfer digital data into an object of design, technology that works by using various materials applied in thin layers, which remain without waste.
