After ending 2013 with record sales in almost every market, the three-pointed star has continued this year with a strong increase, making for the all-time best January month in the company's history.
With no less than 109,477 vehicles delivered to customers worldwide, Mercedes-Benz achieved an increase of 15.4 percent compared with the same period from last year.
“After the record year in 2013 we are starting into another year of growth with strong products. Especially the E- and S-Class, which are very well received by our customers, will ensure that we continue on our growth course”, said Ola Källenius, Member of the Divisional Board Mercedes-Benz Cars responsible for Marketing & Sales. “The new generation of the C-Class will have its market launch in spring and the GLA will win new customers for the brand as the first compact SUV from Mercedes-Benz.”
The Stuttgart achieved record-breaking sales in every major market, with the biggest increases happening in the Asia/Pacific region, where Mercedes-Benz sold with 44.3 percent more vehicles than in January 2013.
