The car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz got off to a successful start in the new year. In January, the brand with the star was able to sell 94,895 cars worldwide.

Regardless of the sales crisis in Europe, the car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz was able to get off to a record start into the new year. In January, the brand with the star was able to sell 94,895 units worldwide, as the company announced on Tuesday. Compared to the same month last year, this is an increase of 9.2 percent.

Strong growth in USA and China

The Swabians' growth was boosted in particular by the strong sales figures in the USA, China and Russia. “After the record year of 2012, we made a strong start to the new year with our January sales,” said Mercedes sales manager Joachim Schmidt. "We are going into 2013 with optimism, even if we will have to adjust to volatile markets, especially in Western Europe, in the coming months," added Schmidt, who is also expecting new record sales this year, as the sales manager recently said in an interview with the Autogazette had said. Schmidt sees growth opportunities above all in North America as well as in Japan, China and Russia.

In view of a large number of new products, Mercedes will start with further growth impulses from the middle of the year. For example, the new CLA, S-Class and the new E-Class are coming onto the market. There was a clear plus in January for Mercedes in the USA, where they increased by 10.8 percent with 22,501 vehicles. In China, the Swabians grew by 15.4 percent with 16,695 units delivered, while growth in Russia was even 26.6 percent. (AG / FM)
