New Delhi:- Mercedes-Benz expects the global economy to be weak due to policies that affect consumers' spending. However, the company is seeing improvements in supply chain problems and energy price pressures. As a result, Mercedes-Benz has increased its earnings outlook for the entire year.
The luxury car company said in statements released on Thursday that they have been accumulating more cars because they have started selling them directly to customers and are making more of them with new models being released.
Mercedes-Benz said that their supply chain had improved noticeably, but Porsche said they were having problems with their supply chain, especially when it came to important components for electric vehicles.

The company now expects to make the same amount of money as last year, instead of making slightly less money.

Mercedes-Benz Vans predicts that their adjusted return on sales in 2023 will be between 13% and 15%, which is higher than their previous forecast of 11% to 13%.
