Our positions.

Protecting the climate and natural resources is one of the existential challenges of the time. However, the more ambitious the targets set by policymakers become, the less they can be achieved by the companies of the automotive industry alone. The political framework conditions are essential. This requires a collaborative dialogue between politics, business and society – and this is precisely where the work of the Mercedes-Benz Group's External Affairs department comes in.
