Meanwhile, Mercedes-Benz has said by 2022, it will have battery electric vehicles in all the segments the company serves. From 2025, all new vehicle architectures will be electric- only and customers will be able to choose an all-electric alternative for every model the company makes. In India, the German marque will continue to offer only the EQC SUV for now.
