Daimler AG's Mercedes-Benz said Tuesday that its Chief
Technology Officer Sajjad Khan will leave the company.
Mr. Khan, also a member of the Mercedes-Benz management board,
will leave at his own request on Sept. 1 to pursue his own
entrepreneurial activities, the Stuttgart-based car maker said.
Magnus Oestberg will join Mercedes-Benz and assume overall
responsibility for the MB.OS--the car maker's vehicle-operating
system--as chief software officer, also on Sept. 1, the company
said.
Research-and-development activities for e-vehicles will now be
brought together under Markus Schaefer, Mercedes-Benz Cars chief
operating officer, as part of the electric-only direction of
Mercedes-Benz, the company added.
