All systems are go - Plans for more than ten different all-electric vehicles by 2022

On the road to locally emission-free driving, #daimler is continuing to pursue a three-lane drive system strategy involving electric vehicles, hybrid models and combustion engines. The company is taking a holistic approach to electrification under the new EQ technology and product brand. In addition to developing a modular family of vehicles, there will be a comprehensive ecosystem that includes the required charging infrastructure.

"All systems are go. We are investing more than ten billion euros in the development of our EQ vehicle portfolio alone," says Ola Källenius who has been responsible for #daimler Group Research and #mercedesbenz Cars Development since the start of the year. "By 2022 we will be bringing more than ten different all-electric vehicles to market. We will also be electrifying the entire #mercedesbenz portfolio and our customers will thus have the choice of at least one electric alternative in every #mercedesbenz model series, taking the total to 50 overall."

When it comes to the future of mobility, #daimler is relying on different technologies continuing to coexist. These are optimally tailored to the particular customer needs and vehicle models. Ola Källenius: "We are placing our emphasis on highly efficient high-tech combustion engines, systematic hybridisation and battery-electric or fuel-cell drive systems. Our approach is deliberately broad in view of our extensive vehicle portfolio and our customers' mobility requirements."
