Frankfurt (ots) - How the car is driving into the future following its 125th birthday is demonstrated today by Mercedes-Benz at the 2011 Frankfurt International Motor Show. Under the motto "Mercedes Next", the inventor of the automobile is presenting no less than six world premieres in Frankfurt. Every single one of them confirms the innovative power of the brand - in particular, the revolutionary F 125! research vehicle, which offers a glimpse of the zero-emission luxury sedan of tomorrow. Also celebrating world premieres, are the new B-Class, the Concept B-Class E-CELL PLUS - a close-to-production electric concept with very long range - and three roadsters, SLS AMG, SLK 55 AMG and SLK 250 CDI. A further show highlight from Mercedes-Benz is the new M-Class, which is also being seen by the broader public for the first time at the IAA.
