Mercedes-Benz 500K
The Mercedes 500K (type W29) is a grand touring car built by Mercedes-Benz between 1934 and 1936. First exhibited at the 1934 Berlin Motor Show,〔 it carried the factory designation W29. Distinguished from the 500 sedan by the "K" for ''Kompressor'' (German for supercharger) only fitted to these performance cars, it succeeded the Mercedes-Benz 380 introduced just the previous year. It offered both a larger, more powerful engine and more opulent coachwork to meet customers' demands for greater luxury and performance.

Three different chassis and eight bodies were available for customers;〔〔 the two longer "B" and "C" four-seat cabriolet versions rode on a wheelbase of , and would later be used on other sedan and touring car models.〔 The short "A" chassis, with a wheelbase, underpinned the two-seater models: the ''Motorway Courier'', and the 1936 ''Special Roadster'' which offered the highest performance.〔 All models featured such advanced equipment as safety glass, hydraulic brakes, and a 12-volt electrical system sufficient to bear the load of the electric windscreen wipers, door locks, and indicators.〔
