The 1935 Mercedes-Benz 500K Cabriolet A, chassis number 105379, exemplifies the pinnacle of pre-war German automotive engineering. Produced between 1934 and 1936, the 500K series was renowned for its combination of luxury, performance, and advanced technology. The "K" in its designation stands for "Kompressor," indicating the presence of a supercharger. This model was powered by a 5.0-liter inline-eight engine equipped with a Roots supercharger, delivering up to 160 horsepower when engaged, allowing the car to reach speeds exceeding 160 km/h (100 mph). The Cabriolet A variant featured a two-door convertible body style, characterized by its elegant design and craftsmanship. One of the unique aspects of the 500K was its advanced independent suspension system, which included a double wishbone front axle and a double-joint swing axle at the rear, providing superior handling and ride comfort compared to its contemporaries. Additionally, the 500K was equipped with hydraulic brakes and a 12-volt electrical system, showcasing Mercedes-Benz's commitment to innovation and safety during that era.
