Back in 1932, Mercedes Benz had came out with their Motor and Formula One racing
car, The Silver Arrow. The Silver Arrow was very successful, and the
most popular car for german racers in the 1930s. The trademark white for
Germany decorating the car, the Silver Arrow won many competitions. It
even won the French Grand Prix 1-2-3. This type of car was a source of
pride to the company and country, and it only made sense to preserve
it’s greatness.
79 years later, at the 2011 LA Design Challenge, Mercedes Benz were showing off their concept car, Silver Lighting. Silver Lightning, as you may have guessed, was inspired by Silver Arrow, reintroducing the pride of Mercedes prowess in the racing sport.
