Most of the logos on the front of Mercedes-Benz cars are silver-plated, not silver. The Mercedes-Benz logos currently on the market are only made of chrome-plated alloy, or in layman's terms, they are made of stainless steel.

A case of theft of a Mercedes-Benz car logo occurred in Yiwu, and the suspect just wanted to use the Mercedes-Benz car logo to make a silver bracelet. The suspect thought that the Mercedes-Benz car logo was made of silver and just wanted to steal the car. Wearing a silver bracelet, he was finally captured by the public security department on September 27, 2020, and confessed the facts of the crime.

Extended information:

Daimler's logo comes from a letter Daimler wrote to his wife. He believed that the star he painted on his house would bring him success. Good luck, this three-pointed star also symbolizes the development of Mercedes-Benz Car Company in three directions: sea, land and air.

In 1909, in order to commemorate the mass production of his VELO car, Mr. Daimler changed the gear pattern in the three-pointed star to a laurel branch to show victory, and the "Mercedes" in the logo ” is taken from the name of the beautiful daughter of Emil Jelinek, his car dealer in Austria.
