It’s what’s driven us since the beginning and what’s helped us navigate and innovate this industry. How do we translate this into the new reality? We’re committed to not just improving the status quo, but changing it, beyond creating the most desirable vehicles. We’re not just a car company, we let our innovation and clear goals speak for the Mercedes-Benz promise, and this new retail model welcomes customers into the world of modern luxury, giving them the feeling of belonging to something special,” Amanda added.
