Econic NGT to be produced in future at the Mercedes-Benz Wörth plant

Date:
13 October 2009
Description:
The first natural gas powered Mercedes-Benz Econic to be built at the Wörth plant leaves the production line. Produced until now at the Mannheim Competence Centre for Emission-Free Mobility (KEM), the high level of customer demand means that gas powered Econic vehicles will be integrated into regular series production and built from now on at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Wörth.

New Econic NGT will in future be produced in the Mercedes-Benz Wörth plant: Econic production transferred from Mannheim to Wörth.
