If you were born after 1980, the chances are good that you went through a Super Mario Brothers phase at some point in your life. Over the last 30 years, Mario has been circulating the globe, impacting people that are now able to afford a luxury automobile. This is where Mercedes-Benz comes in. Following the success of the Mario Kart 8 application, Mercedes-Benz Mario is back with the new GLA, perfectly combining nostalgia with excitement for the future.

Last year, Mercedes-Benz and Nintendo teamed up for Mario Kart 8, giving consumers an opportunity to download three actual Mercedes-Benz cars for gameplay. This collaboration made the 1954 300 SL, 1934 W 25 Silver Arrow race car, and the 2014 GLA the first real vehicles to be available for use in a Mario Kart game.
Super Mario Maker is a video game for the Wii U that you can use to create your own Super Mario Brother levels from the original Mario games for NES and SNES. The game is over a year old but Mercedes-Benz must have figured that late was better than never because it decided to join in on the action. There are probably more secrets than we can find, but take a look at Mario’s new ride in the picture below. It’s a 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLA. We can’t tell which trim but somehow we doubt Mario opted for DYNAMIC SELECT and DISTRONIC PLUS, based on his lifestyle choices and occupation.
Retro screen resolution aside, it is a fun twist on the original game and it is worth checking out Mario in his Mercedes-Benz. If you have the Super Mario Maker game, download the free Mercedes-Benz event course and let us know what you find!
