Mercedes' main brand Daimler has announced that it will now focus on electric cars and plans to downsize.
Daimler, the roof company of the German car manufacturer Mercedes, has been making serious changes recently.
The German brand, which first decided to remove the manual transmission from the cars, announced that some engine options would no longer be used.
GOING SMALL
Daimler CEO Ola Kaellenius has officially announced that they will take this business one step further and the brand will shrink.
Stating that Mercedes-Benz has turned its course into luxury electric and autonomous vehicles, Kaellenius stated that they want to erase their carbon footprints from the world and that the brand will become a much smaller company in five years.
"We will be a much smaller company five years from now. We plan to seriously change our power options. That's why we are recruiting new software engineers and experienced people in battery systems and electric cars." said.
Within the scope of this change, there will be a great decrease in the employment created. Because producing internal combustion engines is much more complex and requires more labor than electric motors.
At the same time, the brand, which will introduce a new operating system by 2024, plans to be the foremost representative of the industry in terms of technology.
Speaking about his new technology, Daimler CEO said, "Think of this operating system as an iPhone model. We will always add new things and improve the technology." used the expressions.
