Forward-looking statements disclaimer

Internet pages, Investor Relations releases, annual and interim reports, outlooks, presentations, audio and video broadcasts of events (live or recorded) and other documents on this website contain, among other things, forward-looking statements about future developments that are based on the current assessments of the management.

If any of these risks and uncertainties (some of which are described in Mercedes-Benz AG’s most recent Annual Report under the heading ‘Risk Report’ and under the heading ‘Risk Factors’ in Form 20-F, which was submitted to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)) materialize or if the assumptions underlying any of our forward-looking statements prove incorrect, then our actual results may be materially different from those we express or imply by such statements.
