Following the world premiere of the new S Class in January 2026, Mercedes Benz launched a transcontinental journey covering more than 50,000 kilometers across Europe, South America, North America, Asia, Australia, Africa, and New Zealand. Throughout the route, the global convoy has visited iconic landmarks, world renowned cities, and destinations closely linked to the brand’s history, pioneering spirit, and worldwide presence, creating memorable experiences for customers, fans, media, and local communities alike.
 
As one of the selected destinations on the global route, Egypt is hosting a series of milestone activations that reflect the unique blend of heritage, culture, innovation, and luxury that defines the country.
 
The journey then continued to the Pyramids of Giza, home to one of the most recognizable monuments in the world and the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. Against this extraordinary backdrop, Mercedes Benz brought together a legacy that began with the invention of the automobile and one of humanity’s greatest achievements in engineering and architecture. 
The Egypt stop also featured a special projection on Cairo Tower, illuminating one of the country’s most recognizable landmarks in honor of 140 Years of Innovation. Serving as a visual welcome to the global journey, the activation highlighted the connection between Mercedes Benz’s enduring legacy and Egypt’s iconic cultural landmarks.

The Egypt programme continues with the soft opening of Mercedes Benz Studio – 5A by Ezz Elarab Star, a new destination designed to redefine the customer experience through a contemporary, lifestyle driven brand environment. Inspired by Mercedes Benz’s global studio concept, the space brings together luxury, design, innovation, and community engagement, creating a new way for customers and enthusiasts to experience the brand and its latest initiatives.
 
The journey then continues to El Gouna, where Mercedes Benz will host the soft opening of Mercedes Benz Studio – El Gouna by Star National Automotive, further expanding its innovative retail and brand experience network in Egypt. Representing a modern and forward looking destination, El Gouna provides a fitting contrast to the historic setting of Giza, highlighting how the global journey connects places that embody both heritage and the future.
