Japanese primary school children learn with Unimog comic.
Football legend Pepe has one. So does MotoGP rider Valentino Rossi. And now also the Unimog. The Mercedes-Benz Special Truck joins the ranks of the stars who have been honored with their own character in the world of Japanese mangas. And all this in the name of education. Because the comic booklet "The Secret of a Multipurpose Work Vehicle" serves as learning material for primary school children.
Whets kids' appetite for learning.
