Mercedes-Benz plans to double production of pieces for its electric vehicles at its Stuttgart complex. The move is designed to ensure it can not only meet rising demand for EVs, but also hit the aggressive targets set out for the EU. Get more information at TheDetroitBureau.com.
In addition to conventional drive units and components, the Mercedes-Benz Stuttgart-Untertürkheim plant is already responsible for the production of batteries and axles for plug-in hybrids and fully electric Mercedes-EQ models. The production and assembly of electric drive units from 2024 onwards was part of the plant’s vision for the future.
