The systematic electrification of the entire product portfolio is a central component of the "Ambition 2039" strategic focus and a basic prerequisite on the road to CO₂ neutrality. The portfolio now includes eight all-electric models.
Electric First and Ambition2039: CO₂-neutral mobility and production
Under "Electric first", Mercedes-Benz is pursuing the consistent electrification of all model variants and vehicle types as a clear target. The successive increase in the proportion of all-electric vehicles in the vehicle portfolio over the next few years is a key factor in this. As early as 2030, so-called xEVs, plug-in hybrids, and fully electric vehicles are expected to account for more than half of sales - and the trend is rising. Electrically powered vehicles from Mercedes-Benz are enjoying increasing popularity. The company delivered a total of 45,000 electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids (xEVs) worldwide in the third quarter of 2020.
With the "Ambition2039", Mercedes-Benz presented its path to CO₂ neutrality more than a year ago. Vehicle production plays a decisive role in this respect. As early as 2022, the company's own Mercedes-Benz passenger car and van plants worldwide will produce in a CO₂-neutral manner. This includes more than 30 passenger car and van plants and also includes the battery factories.
