Yeah. It's a bit strange because Mercedes is known for making expensive cars, and they're nowhere near being a leader in the EV field, the amount of EVs that they make is tiny.
They are ahead of the competition on ADAS and autonomous driving, but their direct competitors VW group have done quite a lot of quick EV market transitions while Daimler-Benz is snoozing.
Hopeful Mercedez bites the bullet and just buys OEM EV solutions from Bosch or some other supplier to make way faster into the EV market.
