Mercedes-Benz AG is set to implement cost-cutting measures following disappointing profits affected by stiff competition and declining demand in China. The company's profitability dropped to 4.7% in the third quarter, far below its expected 8%, primarily due to a fall in sales of its high-end models. Despite announcing a focus on increasing efficiency and reducing costs, specifics on where to cut were not disclosed, as the German automaker struggles with high operational costs compared to competitors like Tesla.
