Daimler Buses has set itself a range of ambitious targets for 2030, including achieving an adjusted return on sales of nine percent by the end of the decade and eight percent by as early as 2025 (2023: adjusted return on sales of 4.7%). Overall, the business segment is set to become more lean and therefore profitable in order to shoulder the investment into electrification.

The company announced plans to electrify the HTM bus depot in the Hague, Netherlands. Construction has begun, with the depot expected to be up and running by Q3 2024. The supply agreement includes the chargers, installation, maintenance,  charging management software as well as the delivery of 95 Mercedes-Benz eCitaro city buses.

Improving the eCitaro’s environmental footprint will further contribute to Daimler Buses' environmental and sustainability goals as well as improve its ESG score.

on the 12th of July, EvoBus will officially be rebranded as Daimler Buses alongside all other affiliated European national subsidiaries in order for EvoBus to benefit from the Daimler brand. All EvoBus service centres will be renamed Daimler Buses Service Centres starting mid-July.

The company will provide European customers with its electric bus charging solutions. Dietrich Müller, previously Head of E-Systems at Daimler Buses has been appointed Managing Director of Daimler Buses Solutions.
