It seems that Daimler Group also intends to accelerate its electrification plan . According to Manager Magazin, the strong political pressures that are pushing to a possible early end of endothermic models, at least in Europe, would have led to CEO Ola K & auml; llenius to change strategy. For this reason, we would like to bring forward the debut of the electric Mercedes models originally planned for 2024 and 2025 by one year. At the same time, the German brand would begin to phase out its offer of endothermic cars.

DETAILS BEFORE THE SUMMER BREAK

According to the report, the CEO may present this new strategy already; during the summer, probably before the holiday period . This is certainly important news which, however, must be taken with due caution. Daimler declined to comment on the report but, if the information is true, then there is no need to comment on the report. wait a long time before discovering the new plans of the German group.

Actually, already in March, Mercedes had made hopes that it wanted to speed up its electrification projects without, however, specifying precise details. True & egrave; which for the moment is not there a precise date at European level for the end of the sales of endothermic models but & egrave; equally true that the requests in this sense are getting more and more; pressing. The Daimler Group therefore seems to want to be ready.

All that remains is to be patient to understand more. The models planned for 2024/2025 should be those based on the new MMA platform (Mercedes-Benz Modular Architecture) which is; designed as a base for compact and medium-sized battery cars. Currently, the German manufacturer for its EQS uses the new EVA platform which for & ograve; will be dedicated only for large premium battery models. For the new EQA, however, the brand has still used a shared basis with the endothermic model.

What has been emerging in recent times is; that many car manufacturers are deciding to anticipate the transition to electric cars. Just to give some recent examples, it seems that Audi will not introduce & agrave; more new endothermic models after 2026, while Fiat will become; an electric-only brand from 2030.
