Is it possibly a Benz from about 1925, and the model could be a 16-50?

Did the company also build trucks?

I was quite sure that the maker of this car didn't build trucks; I made some researches, and, actually it seems that it built only cars.

Thank you for researching this question. The reason I asked about trucks was that most of the prominent manufacturers made trucks as well as cars, and I thought it may of helped narrow down the maker of this car from the hundreds of other German makes.

This car maker is not a leader-market.

I have to come back to the trucks question:   a professional autopuzzler kindly posted to me some early pictures of trucks built by the firm of quiz car, trucks I didn't know about.
So, please note that, otherwise my previous opinion, the maker of this car made also some trucks.

I'm quite sure this is an Elite, a 1928 S 14 14/60 PS Pullman Limousine, and maybe even the same car as in the attached photo. I must say, this was a challenging puzzle!

Oh yes! That's the perfect and complete answer I was waiting for. The picture you posted is actually of the same car...same plate indeed.
A well earned point for you.
