Mercedes-Benz AG

Mercedes-Benz AG is a German carmaker headquartered on Mercedesstraße in Stuttgart, where it is also entered in the commercial register. The Mercedes-Benz brand is also carried by the Mercedes-Benz Group, whose operating business is conducted in the divisions Mercedes-Benz Cars, Mercedes-Benz Vans and Mercedes-Benz Financial Services, each pursuing a market- and customer-specific strategy. This structure is common among large carmakers, where a financing arm supports vehicle sales through leasing and loans.

The company's passenger car offering includes new Mercedes-Benz cars, supported by an online configurator and test drive bookings, as well as the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class, GLS and SL. Its line-up features the EQS with the MBUX Hyperscreen and the electric C 400 4MATIC, complemented by Mercedes-Benz Digital Extras and a digital companion. It also presents concept vehicles including Vision Iconic, Vision V, Vision One Eleven and the Concept AMG GT XX. Carmakers commonly use concept vehicles of this kind to preview design language and new technology before they reach series production.

Its production network includes the Sindelfingen plant, where three top-of-the-range models are built on a single line at Factory 56, as well as plants in Kecskemét and Vitoria, and China is identified as its largest market. Heritage activities include a Classic Center offering genuine classic parts and classic vehicle trade, a museum with exhibitions and events, and material on corporate, technology and motorsport history. Mercedes-Benz AG is represented by a Board of Management and has a Supervisory Board, reflecting the two-tier model that German stock corporations use to separate day-to-day management from supervision.
