The Mercedes-Benz W154 was a Grand Prix racing car designed by Rudolf Uhlenhaut. The W154 competed in the 1938 and 1939 Grand Prix seasons and was used by Rudolf Caracciola to win the 1938 European Championship.The W154 was created as a result of a rule change by the sports governing body AIACR which required supercharged engine capacities to be limited to 3000cc. Mercedes’ previous car the W125 used a 5700cc engine and was therefore ineligible to be entered.
