Mercedes — Last ICE Platform 2023, Midsize EV Sedan 2024
Think the EV revolution isn’t real? Guess again, combustion breath. Mercedes-Benz had a couple of announcements this week that make it crystal clear the revolution is coming and sooner than many people think.In general, the average lifespan for an automotive model is 7 years. The Mercedes E Class is due for an update next year, and Mercedes told Germany’sthis week that the new platform for the E Class will be the last internal combustion chassis it will develop.
Three such architectures have been announced so far, plus the MMA discussed in the next section. MB.EA covers all mid-sized and large passenger cars and “will be the electric basis of the future BEV portfolio as a scalable modular system.” For the performance models, the AMG.EA “electric platform designed for peak performance” is intended to address “the needs of Mercedes-AMG’s technology-savvy and performance-oriented customers.
Given the focus on BEV vehicles, Mercedes-Benz plans to reduce its range of internal combustion engines with the introduction of the Euro 7 emissions standard and also end its engine cooperation with Renault for compact cars. Regarding fuel cell vehicles, Schäfer says there are considerable disadvantages in terms of unit costs, energy efficiency, and the space required for the tanks.
