The Mercedes Benz logo is a symbol that began in 1909 with the merger of two companies. Those companies were Benz and Cie and the DMG companies that produced automobiles at the turn of the century. When WWI became a reality in Europe the two companies joined forces to create Mercedes Benz.
The three pointed symbol has been designed to represent power over the land, the air and the sea. This may be the spiritual way of looking at the logo, but nowadays Mercedes Benz owners probably do not look at the logo in that way. To them, the Mercedes Benz AMG logo is a symbol of reliability, speed and quality of workmanship.
The AMG logo simply features the letters AMG which stands for Aufrecht Melcher Grossapach. These letters represent the names of the Mercedes Benz AMG inventors as well as the first initial of the birthplace of the AMG motor.
You will not find the AMG logo without the traditional three pointed Mercedes Benz logo, since the two represent a partnership to create the fastest, best car on the market. It was through striving for this goal, that the AMG motor was developed for race car drivers and to bring the public a car that currently reaches over 150 miles per hour.
