Mercedes axes cheaper models in bid for luxury brand status

Chief Ola Källenius targets profit margins closer to those of rivals Porsche and Ferrari

Mercedes-Benz will axe three cheaper models and spend the vast majority of its cash on developing top-of-the-range cars in a bid to convince investors that it ranks alongside luxury goods groups such as France’s LVMH.
