The preparations for exclusively green electricity for a climate-friendly production in Europe are already well advanced. Thereby, we completely forego coal-based electricity and obtain our electrical energy from only renewable sources. As part of the electric offensive, Mercedes-Benz Cars counts on local emission-free vehicles.
