Mercedes-Benz delivers 2 millionth car at its base in Kecskemét

Mercedes-Benz has delivered its 2 millionth car at its base in Kecskemét (C Hungary).

The milestone was reached as a fully-electric EQB model rolled off the production line.

In addition to the EQB, the base produces A-Class, CLA Coupe and Shooting Brake models. Last year, over 174,000 were made at the base.

Jorg Burzer, Mercedes-Benz Group board member for production, acknowledged the efforts of workers at the plant to ensure "2 million satisfied customers".

Mercedes-Benz Manufacturing Hungary managing director Jens Buhler said an expansion at the plant would ensure it remained a "reliable partner" for car buyers in future, too.

Production of compact models in Kecskemét started in 2021.
