The new Mercedes-Benz EQS - sustainability

Source: AutoMotoTV (Glomex)

As part of Ambition 2039, Mercedes-Benz is working to offer a CO2-neutral new car fleet in less than 20 years, eleven years earlier than EU legislation currently requires. Already by 2030, the company aims to sell more than half of its cars with electric drive systems - this includes fully electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids. In many areas, Mercedes is already thinking about tomorrow today: the new EQS is designed to be correspondingly sustainable. The vehicles are produced in a CO2-neutral manner at Factory 56, and resource-conserving materials such as carpets made from recycled yarn are used. This is because Mercedes-Benz considers the entire value chain, from development and the supplier network to its own production. Mercedes-Benz AG has had its climate protection targets confirmed by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTI). With these targets, the company supports the Paris climate agreement.
