The American branch of the German manufacturer has reported August sales of 27,144 units, which represents an increase of 15.8% from the 23,439 vehicles sold in the same month from 2012.
The Mercedes-Benz brand alone accounted for 24,761 units for the last month of the summer, up 20.5% from the same period in 2012, while year-to-date sales climbed to a record 190,359 units, up 13% from last year.
“The market is continuing to pick up steam, our sales momentum is on record pace and we have two major new products hitting the market in the next few weeks,” said Steve Cannon, president and CEO of MBUSA. “At $29,900 the CLA will open a whole new gateway to the Mercedes-Benz brand, and our next generation S-Class will redefine the standards of luxury and innovation for the entire industry. We're looking at a record year not only in terms of sales but also for recalibrating the Mercedes-Benz model lineup to lead the industry.”
The grand total for the entire Daimler AG USA operations after adding the Sprinter Van and the smart fortwo make out a total of 209,459 units sold year-to-date, which is not at all surprisingly another all-time high.
