Daimler Magazine

We'd spent a long time working toward it - and, Sunday evening 01/14/2018, it finally happened: Our new G-Class celebrated its world premiere in Detroit. The response to our completely revised all-terrain vehicle has been exceptionally positive!

China and Daimler - most would spontaneously associate this combination with an outstanding customer acceptance for passenger cars with the three-pointed star. However, the Chinese market offers a lot more potential for Daimler, as reflected by the lively demand for the "big boys" - our heavy-duty trucks.

Plié, Tendu and Nijinsky... may sound like something delicious to an outsider who is

Have you ever wondered if one person could actually make a change in a global company like ours with 292,000 employees? Well let me tell you, I’ve wondered the same and I ended up changing my viewpoint at the netWorkCamp – an internal event about how we can work together in the digital age!

When word came from the plant that Product Management’s smart fortwo cabrio needed to be destroyed, my heart sank. We logged thousands of miles in this car, dragged it all over the East Coast for customer and media events, and even featured it on smartusa.com.

The kicker: I got to do so together with Daimler Fleetboard GmbH and an awesome team!

A lot of rain in a short period of the year - this is the reality of the Brazilian steppe. For many people living here agriculture is the main source of income. However, the lack of water is the main challenge. The Daimler Group and Caritas Water for Life cooperation opens up new perspectives. In my example: Becoming a proud producer of fruit pulp.
