what does amg stand for in mercedes benz cars
Mercedes-AMG AMG was founded as a racing engine forge in 1967 under the name AMG Motorenbau und Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH (AMG Engine Production and Development, Ltd.), by former Mercedes-Benz engineers Hans Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher in Burgstall an der Murr, near Stuttgart. The letters "AMG" stand for Aufrecht, Melcher and Großaspach (Aufrecht's birth town). In 1976 most of AMG moved to Affalterbach, with the racing-engine development remaining at the old location in Burgstall. At this time Erhard Melcher ceased to be a partner, but continued to be an employee at the Burgstall location.
Hyundai Blue Drive Strategy The Blue Drive Strategy is Hyundai's new and upcoming strategy for fuel efficient vehicles, and encompasses environmental-friendly vehicle technologies. This has started with some of the Hyundai vehicles such as the i10, more fuel efficient version of the Elantra and Accent. Many of these new vehicles will try to beat Toyota and Honda motor companies by going over the US average MPG for both Honda and Toyota. Hyundai's target fleet MPG is 35mpg by the end of 2015. The Hyundai Blue-Will is a concept car that was unveiled in Seoul South Korea as part of the Blue Drive Strategy. Hyundai is testing other possible items to be used in their cars such as diesel engines and fuel cells. Hyundai has made a test car, known as the Tucson Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle, which is run by fuel cells.[1]
