“We are growing profitably, our strategy is bearing fruit,” chairman Dieter Zetsche said. “Unit sales, revenue and EBIT from the ongoing business will all increase significantly in 2014.”
The EBIT rise was due to a better model mix and further efficiency gains but exchange-rate effects again hit operating profit.
Mercedes-Benz Cars unit sales grew 3% to 418,700 units.
