The commitment of Daimler AG in the field of science, research and environment

Our commitment in the areas of science, research and the environment aims at combining fascination and innovation with sustainability. We want to market innovative vehicles that inspire customers and meet the demands of future mobility, while also setting new standards with clean production processes, clean and economical drives and fascinating vehicle concepts.

We therefore support projects at universities and research institutes. In this way, we can help put knowledge into practice. We also sponsor environmental projects that help to develop foundations and establish new mobility concepts designed to create and maintain living areas.
