Daimler is expected to produce battery packs for plug-in electric cars at even more sites than previously announced.
According to Reuters, the company recently said that plants in Sindelfingen and in Untertuerkheim in Germany will get battery manufacturing capabilities too.
Several battery production sites suggest that Daimler is preparing for the gradual transition to plug-ins.
That’s comes on top of the:
- two plants in Kamenz, Germany
- plant in Beijing, China
- plant in Tuscaloosa, Alabama
- plant in Bangkok, Thailand
- NEW: Untertuerkheim, Germany
- NEW: Sindelfingen, Germany
It’s odd that in the case of Mercedes-Benz electric buses, the battery packs are made by the separate company AKASOL.
