#Mandela100: Mercedes-Benz reminisces over its walk with Madiba
Mercedes-Benz South Africa paid tribute to Nelson Mandela's legacy that defined a country by creating and sharing a video highlighting the special moments and ties the company has had with Madiba.
The relationship goes as far back as the day he was released from prison on 11 February 1990 when the team gave him a car specifically built for him.
According to the company, the Mercedes-Benz team pulled together to make it happen: they worked one hour overtime every day - free of charge - and actually made more than a car for Madiba – it made a symbol of pride and togetherness.
