Mwb Keeps Daimler Truck at Sell Amid Chinese Truck Rollout in Europe

01:21 AM EDT, 09/18/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Mwb Research maintained its sell rating on Daimler Truck (DTG.F) after the IAA Transportation conference in Hannover, Germany, citing potential long-term margin risks from Chinese truck makers entering the European market. "The main message was the group's focus on technology, particularly zero-emission and software-driven solutions, alongside efficiency improvements. However, we remain cautious. Chinese manufacturers are entering Europe with aggressively priced [electric vehicle] trucks, as was also evident from their strong presence at the IAA. This could put European [original equipment manufacturers] under significant pressure as the Chinese rollout starts from 2027 onwards. Over the long term, this could lead to market share losses and margin pressure," the research firm said Thursday. Beyond showcasing alternative powertrains, analysts noted that the German commercial vehicle manufacturer identified software, digital services and autonomous driving as core growth drivers. "Overall, the presentation underlined DTG's ambition to remain a technology leader while making its offering more competitive and [future-ready]," the research firm wrote. Mwb has a price target of 33 euros on the stock.
