Luxury car maker Daimler will present a study of an electric car for the Chinese market at the Beijing International Automotive Exhibition in late April, company board member Thomas Weber told the German magazine WirtschaftsWoche.
Weber said that the car, based on Daimler's old B model, was to be sold in China under a completely different brand name.
Daimler operates a 600 million yuan ($95 million) electric car venture with BYD, a Chinese carmaker backed by US billionaire Warren Buffett.
