“Made in Sindelfingen” is a traditional seal of quality for Mercedes-Benz customers. Top models such as the S-Class, which stand for precision and exclusivity, are produced here in the ultra-modern Factory 56. However, Sindelfingen is not only the birthplace of the S-Class, but also the home of MANUFAKTUR - the cross-brand customization and personalization program from Mercedes-Benz. Here, specialized employees bring their expertise in the areas of textile finishing, interior fittings, construction and special paintwork to realize customizations for top-end vehicles. With the strategic development of the MANUFAKTUR program, Mercedes-Benz is consistently continuing the tradition of craftsmanship and thus strengthening Sindelfingen as a top-end production location. From now on, customers with exclusive customization requests at the Sindelfingen location have the opportunity to experience the MANUFAKTUR program up close in several places: in the traditional Center of Excellence, in the MANUFAKTUR and, brand new, in the MANUFAKTUR Studio, which was officially opened on December 5, 2024.
After customers have configured their dream vehicle in the Center of Excellence, individual components of the vehicle are manufactured in the MANUFAKTUR with elaborate precision and manual work. In the new MANUFAKTUR Studio, they can then experience first-hand how the vehicle is equipped according to their individual wishes. Both locations combine craftsmanship, attention to detail and the latest manufacturing technologies to make individual or even tailor-made vehicle dreams come true. At the same time, Mercedes-Benz is introducing innovative high-tech manufacturing methods and extensively expanding the customization options.
