AMG Emotion Tours : Experience Grand Vacation with High Performance Vehicles


AMG came up with an activity that will satisfy car lovers' longing to experience riding the high-performance vehicle. The tour, composed of different packages, will also let them experience living it up with lifestyle tours.

All tours will start in Affalterbach and will travel on an AMG car to the destination that is part of the package that you choose. The Montreaux package includes fine dining and partying at Lake Geneva for the popular Garden Party and Jazz Festival while the golf package will take you to Munich with Bernd Schneider and Robert Baker. To DTM fans you can take the package that will bring you to watch DTM racing up close.

If you have 'play money', you can join the Masters SLS AMG Experience which is kind of like the AMG Driving Academy only much posh, as it will take you circling the famous European tracks of La Castellet, Sachsenring, Spa-Francorchamps and Nordschleife behind the wheels of an SLS GT3.

Prices for the tour ranges from €570 for the Spirit of SLS AMG to €6,280 for the Masters SLS AMG Experience.

Hydrogen Refueling Stations will be Set-up by Mercedes and Linde Group


For quite some time since late last year, there has been talks about The Linde Group who is providing the fuel for the B-Class F-Cell cars for the World Drive. After the tour’s conclusion last week, the company finally confirmed the reports and they even went further the partnership saying they will put up the hydrogen fuel stations in Germany. They will start with 20 stations, targeting Berlin, Hamburg and Stuttgart. Mercedes-Benz said there will be two more cities but they will announce it later.

Mercedes- Benz and Linde said in a press statement that, “Germany clearly leads the way in Europe. To begin with, just five to ten filling stations are sufficient for conveniently servicing the requirements of a large city. Joining up these urban centres – for example Berlin with Hamburg, Stuttgart with Munich – by means of corridors along the arterial roads between them is a major step forward towards the establishment of a nationwide public H2 infrastructure.”

Clearly, Mercedes-Benz/Daimler is highly committed in the success of commercialization of F-Cell powered cars.
