Mercedes-Benz USA Corporate Profile

Mercedes-Benz USA (MBUSA), headquartered in Montvale, New Jersey, is responsible for the sales, marketing and service of all Mercedes-Benz and Maybach vehicles, parts and accessories in the United States.

Over the past decade, the company has introduced a number of new models, many of them in new market segments. The Mercedes-Benz family includes the mid-size C-Class sports sedans, the highly acclaimed ninth generation E-Class sedans, coupes, cabrios and wagons, flagship S-Class sedans and CL coupes, sleek CLS four-door coupes, racy SLK roadsters and renowned SL roadsters. MBUSA also offers a family of luxury trucks, including SUVs - - the compact GLK, full-size M, GL and G-Classes - - as well as the R-Class crossover. Separately, MBUSA oversees sales and marketing of the super luxury Maybach models in the U.S.

The U.S. history of Mercedes-Benz began in 1888 when Gottlieb Daimler authorized American piano maker William Steinway to produce and market Daimler engines, light trucks and passenger cars in this country. Starting in 1901, Daimler's cars became known by the name Mercedes and Steinway's company actually built a model called the American Mercedes in Long Island City, New York, from late 1904 until February 1907, when fire destroyed the factory.

MBUSA itself (then MBNA) was founded in 1965 in Fort Lee, NJ, to direct the national sales, service and parts networks needed to accommodate the rapidly growing number of Mercedes-Benz owners in the United States. It opened its Montvale, NJ headquarters in 1972, subsequently adding other facilities nearby, including a national Customer Assistance Center.

MBUSA sells its vehicles, parts and accessories and provides service support through more than 350 full sales and service dealerships across the country. The company's regional headquarters are located in Parsippany, NJ; Jacksonville, Fla.; Rosemont, Ill.; and Costa Mesa, California. Vehicle preparation centers, parts distribution centers, training centers, service centers and emission-control laboratories are established at strategic locations throughout the U.S.
