The Mercedes-Benz W136 was part of a series of four-cylinder in-line cars from the mid-1930s to the 1950s. The 170 V debuted in February 1936 as the successor to the W15 170 and was Mercedes-Benz's best-selling model from 1936 to 1939. The Mercedes-Benz 170 series was the German automobile brand's successful volume model before and after World War II. This model can be considered the forerunner of today's E-Class.
During the war, the factory was very badly damaged by bombing, but the manufacturer nevertheless emerged from the trauma with a significant competitive advantage over many of its prewar competitors. W136s were in sufficient numbers to survive the bombings during World War II and serve as the basis for rebuilding the company. By 1947, the 170 V was once again Mercedes-Benz's best-seller, a position it held until 1953.
