With designo your Mercedes-Benz will be unique in its own way. Fine wood or stone trim parts, exquisite leather upholstery and select exterior paint finishes give your automobile a special touch.

Every single equipment item represents an extraordinary level of quality which you will sense at first glance and with every touch. What’s the secret behind this? To be quite honest, in selecting and processing the designo materials we adopted a great deal from other craftsmen: from experienced upholsters, the art of working handpicked leather skins with the greatest care; from piano builders, coating trim parts with up to ten layers of piano lacquer, until they achieve an incomparable brilliance and depth effect; and from Leonardo da Vinci, the idea to use poplar wood. designo elements in a Mercedes may not equal the Mona Lisa – but they can always be considered a small work of art.
