[/caption]Established as the ultimate luxury brand of the automotive world, Mercedes-Benz has now set its sights a little higher, and we're not speaking just figuratively. The high-end brand is taking its luxury aesthetic to new heights with the production of its very own helicopter.
For Mercedes-Benz, it was an easy transition into the world of personal air transport, thanks to their "Mercedes-Benz style" collaboration with Eurocopter. The company shared Mercedes-Benz designers, along with the company's name and style. The result of this partnership, the EC145, was given a world premiere this week at the European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibit (EBACE) .
The EC145 helicopter resembles the Mercedes-Benz S-class with familiar design elements such as wood trim, plush leather seats, soft-touch plastics and ambient cabin lighting. The helicopter holds a maximum number of 8 passengers. However, its seats are set conveniently on rails, allowing for a number of different seating configurations.
