Mercedes will avoid building EV-only plants to keep product flexible to meet market demand.
Mercedes-Benz expects to have factories exclusively producing electric vehicles by the second half of the decade but will steer clear of building EV-only plants, instead keeping production lines flexible to match market demand.
The automaker foresees some of its production lines within factories switching fully to electric even sooner, production chief Joerg Burzer said in an interview with Reuters.
