Top 5 Mercedes-Benz Supercars

Mercedes-Benz is famous for producing high-quality luxury vehicles that lead the automotive world. Its cars are also famous for their incredible performance features that trump the competition every time. This is why there is no surprise that the German automakers have produced some of the most iconic supercars in automotive history.

A superpower is a vehicle that performs head and shoulders above the average vehicles. They also require years of research and development to make, which is why only a few car companies in the world can make them.
