Mercedes-Benz 260 D
 The Mercedes-Benz 260 D was one of the first two diesel engined series produced passenger cars. The other was the diesel version of the Hanomag Rekord. Both were introduced at the Berlin Motor Show in February 1936. The 260 D was named in reference to its engine's cubic capacity. Nearly 2000 vehicles were assembled until 1940 after which the Daimler-Benz group had to devote itself almost entirely to military manufacture.
