The Neu-Ulm location is the competence center for coaches of all drive types and part of the Daimler Buses production network. The plant was founded in 1991 by the former Karl Kässbohrer Fahrzeugwerke GmbH. Through the merger of Mercedes-Benz Buses with the Kässbohrer brand Setra, the location became part of Daimler Buses in 1995.
