New technology always has its critics, and not surprisingly, the automobile was no different. What did Kaiser Wilhelm II, the last German Emperor, think of the new technology of his day? “I believe in the horse – the automobile is a temporary appearance.” I have a feeling Wilhelm II would like to recant his prior statements.
A new video from Mercedes-Benz TV shows these kind of statements throughout 125 years of automotive history, none of which managed to deter the drive of Mercedes-Benz. That, of course, is why they’re Mercedes-Benz.
