The V116 Pullman represented Mercedes-Benz's commitment to offering the world's most luxurious and spacious executive sedan platform.
Development began in the early 1970s with engineering teams focused on extending the W116 platform to accommodate extended wheelbase bodywork and premium amenities.
Production commenced in 1975 at the Stuttgart-Untertürkheim facility, immediately establishing itself as the preferred transport for global dignitaries and corporate leaders.
Manufacturing concluded in 1981 as the next-generation V126 platform prepared for market introduction with even more advanced technology and styling.
