The first Mercedes-Benz logo with a three-pointed star dates from 1909, according to logodesignlove.com.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span data-contrast=\"auto\">What does the Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star represent?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The three points of the Mercedes-Benz logo represent the domination of the land, sea, and air. More generally, the logo represents the company\u2019s goal of putting Mercedes-Benz engines into every vehicle type and therefore becoming universal in all three types of vehicles, land vehicles, air vehicles, and water vehicles. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<h3><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Does Mercedes-Benz offer a boat or a plane?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Mercedes-Benz is a luxury brand, so the boat that they offer is too. In fact, Mercedes-Benz has had its hand in more than one boat, including the Mercedes-Benz AMG \u00ae boat and a yacht, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercedes-benz.com\/en\/design\/style\/world-premiere-of-the-mercedes-benz-style-luxury-yacht\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Arrow460-Granturismo<\/a>. You probably won\u2019t see these boats frequently, but they do prove that Mercedes-Benz has stuck to its goal of spreading over the land and sea, and perhaps they are just a taste of future endeavors by the brand.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As for a plane, there is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercedes-benz.com\/en\/design\/style\/lufthansa-technik\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Mercedes-Benz Lufthansa Technik model<\/a>.
