The sports car that defined a generation with its breathtaking design and performance
The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing, introduced in 1954, remains one of the most iconic sports cars ever built. Instantly recognizable by its upward-opening doors, this masterpiece combined cutting-edge technology with timeless style. It was the first production car equipped with fuel injection, allowing it to reach speeds up to 260 km/h—unheard of at the time. At the museum, the Gullwing shines as a symbol of post-war optimism, engineering excellence, and unmatched automotive beauty.
