The Legend of the Mercedes-Benz 280 SE (W 108)

The Mercedes-Benz 280 SE (W 108) is a timeless masterpiece of automobile engineering, introduced in the generation from 1965 to 1972. This icon was developed under the guidance of designer Paul Bracq and chief engineer Fritz Nallinger. This sedan represents the synthesis of luxury and technology and was the successor to the popular W 111 series. The striking design, characterized by the elegant front end, curved chrome elements, and generous windows, is a prime example of the design philosophy of the era. Historically, this generation was introduced in parallel with significant events like the signing of the Paris Peace Accords ending the Vietnam War and the release of the legendary song "Purple Haze" by Jimi Hendrix.

This modelcar in the collection of BenzW110 is one of currently 29.825 registered models on Modelly!

Technical Sophistication and Innovations of the Original

The Mercedes-Benz 280 SE was available with various engine options powered by a 2.8-liter six-cylinder engine delivering up to 160 horsepower. These models featured innovative technologies such as the introduction of disc brakes on all four wheels and air suspension on top models, significantly enhancing ride comfort. The four-speed automatic transmissions and precise recirculating ball steering highlighted the robust and durable character of the vehicle. Safety standards were also elevated through reinforced impact zones and a safety steering column.
