Products

Financing Customers who opt to finance their automobiles with a loan usually plan to obtain ownership of the vehicles. Customers can determine the monthly rate by selecting the amount of the down payment and the duration of the contract. Moreover, Daimler Financial Services offers balloon-payment financing in many countries so that customers can enjoy especially favorable monthly rates. In the case of an option financing contract, the customer decides at the end of the financing period whether to return the vehicle, refinance the remainder of the loan, or pay it off all at once.

Leasing Daimler Financial Services remains the owner of the vehicle in all leasing contracts; the customer merely pays to use the vehicle and returns it after the contract expires. Service-leasing packages combine the contract with various service components, such as maintenance, repairs and tire services.

Insurance Daimler Financial Services offers a range of automobile-related insurance products, including motor insurance, gap insurance and payment protection insurance. In addition to insuring all of the Daimler production locations and transport and product liability risks worldwide, the company’s Corporate Insurance unit manages the company and private pension plans of the Group’s employees in Germany.

Fleet management In many countries, Daimler Financial Services is one of the leading providers of fleet management services for passenger cars and trucks. Its Daimler Fleet Management and Mercedes-Benz CharterWay subsidiaries in Europe offer comprehensive fleet management packages for passenger cars and commercial vehicles, respectively. If the customer wishes, such services can be expanded to include the complete management of entire fleets.
