In one of the world’s craziest private helicopter scenes, São Paulo, Airbus Corporate Helicopters (ACH) and Mercedes-Benz just dropped the ACH145 Mercedes-Benz Edition. It’s the newest star from a partnership that’s been rocking since 2010, after already wowing customers with 26 custom ACH145 Mercedes-Benz Style birds.
A Decade of Iconic Collaboration: Airbus & Mercedes-Benz
“As a result of the renewal of the highly successful design collaboration which introduced the concept of partnerships between the automotive and aerospace industries in 2010, ACH and Mercedes-Benz have brought together the DNA of two icons: the versatile and robust ACH145 and the charisma of Mercedes-Benz. Today, discerning customers can travel in a Mercedes-Benz level of comfort and style, on land and in the air”, said Frederic Lemos, Head of Airbus Corporate Helicopters, in an official press release.
Unrivaled Performance for the Globe-Trotting Entrepreneur
Powered by the latest five-bladed H145, the ACH145 gives you smoother flights, comfier vibes inside, way less noise, and a solid 150 kg extra payload. It’s built for those globe-trotting entrepreneurs who treat it like a flying office—getting them anywhere, anytime, to crush business across regions and time zones.
Inside the Cabin: A Game-Changer
Step into this cabin, and it’s like the world outside melts away. The 5-blade rotor and clever upholstered acoustic panels slash vibrations and noise—it’s genuinely calmer than you’d expect from a helicopter.
Comfort hits different here, with 6 gorgeous design choices and modular seating for up to 8, all drawing from Mercedes-Benz’s automotive playbook. It’s luxe without trying too hard.
Craftsmanship steals the show with rich noble woods, butter-soft leather, sharp stainless steel bits, and super-durable stitching. You’ll get a workspace that’s classy yet bombproof for real-world adventures.
Tech-wise, it’s seamless: a smart new central cabinet and “Bring Your Own Device” connectivity make controlling in-flight entertainment a breeze.
Secure Your Sky-High Sanctuary: Pricing & Next Steps
…No word on official pricing yet, but figure around $10 million from past versions. The ACH145 Mercedes-Benz Edition extends your posh world flawlessly, driveway to heliport to horizon. This seamless integration of luxury across transport modes is a hallmark of the brand, much like the exquisite design seen in other ventures such as the Mercedes-Maybach unveiled $155M Members Club superyacht concept. Beat the birds to it—hit up Airbus Corporate Helicopters before everyone else wings away with the best seats.
