Electric cars sales tanking, so ICE’s life extended:
It wasn’t long ago that Mercedes was vowing to go EV-only in major markets by 2030, but terrible sales figures for many of its electric cars has prompted a major rethink. The brand isn’t turning its back on EVs by any means – 17 of the new models it will launch by 2027 will be battery powered. But 19 of the new cars will have combustion power and live on well into the 2030s.
