Mercedes-Benz Group sold 2,491,600 vehicles in 2023 (+1.5%), despite supply chain constraints.

“Sales in 2023 show that top end vehicles delivered their best ever performance. Electric vehicle sales continue to rise,” said chairman Ola Kaellenius.

Cars

Cars sold 2,043,800 units in 2023, flat versus 2022.

Availability of the new GLC and E-Class was constrained in many markets due to a shortage of 48 volt systems. The C-Class saw sales rise by 10% in 2023.

Entry segment sales reached 618,800 units (+4%) in 2023 driven by the strong demand of the EQA (+57%) and EQB (+109%).
