Kang Linsong believes that to do this, Mercedes-Benz must master the electronic architecture as perfectly as digitally. From 2025, all Mercedes-Benz new car platforms will produce electric vehicles in accordance with its 2021 strategy.

Mercedes-Benz's planned MB.EA platform models in China are under scrutiny to ensure they better meet the needs of local customers, especially space and digital content (products or services that integrate pictures, text, images, voice, etc.), an executive said.

With the continuous expansion of electric vehicle products in China, electric vehicles may account for 6% of total car sales in Southeast Asia by the end of 2023.
