Daimler Truck increased group sales in 2021

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

  • Daimler #truck reports increased group sales of approximately 455.000 units
    for 2021, 20 % above prior year level (2020: 378.290 units)
  • Tight supply situation for semiconductors has slowed further sales growth
    in 2021
  • Daimler #truck achieves volume targets at Group level and in segments

Stuttgart – #daimler #truck significantly increased its group sales in the past fiscal year. With 455,000 units, approximately 20% more trucks and buses were sold worldwide in 2021 compared to prior-year level. The company benefitted from a recovery in its most important markets, especially in the first half of 2021. While demand remained strong across core markets during the second half, supply constraints slowed production and constrained volume growth especially for heavy duty vehicles in the US and Europe.

Newly independent #daimler #truck will report unit sales figures based on the industrial business segments presented at its Capital Market Day on November 11th 2021
Mercedes-Benz, Trucks North America (Freightliner, Western Star, Thomas Built Buses), Trucks Asia (FUSO, BharatBenz) and Buses (Mercedes-Benz & Setra). All segments
achieved the volume targets set at the Capital Market Day on November 11th 2021, despite the worsening semiconductor situation towards the end of the year.
