Mercedes - Benz
Mercedes-Benz: 93,800 (+1.1%) ... YTD 669,500 (+1.7%)
smart: 9,900 (+3.0%) ... YTD 51,900 (-27.5%)
Mercedes Car Group: 103,700 (+1.3%) ... 721,400 (-1.1%)
Mercedes-Benz posts record sales in first seven months of 2007
In the luxury segment, Mercedes-Benz remains the market leader with a clear edge over its competitors: In July, sales in this segment increased by 13 percent to a new record of 9,200 units.
The new generation of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class is also continuing its very positive development. Since the beginning of the year, 136,300 E-Class vehicles have been sold, five percent more than in the same period of 2006.
The new Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan is also extremely popular. Demand for the model increased by 67 percent in July to a total of 24,800 units worldwide.The new model has recently been launched in the United States and in the markets for right-hand drive vehicles. From now on, Mercedes-Benz dealers will also offer three additional engine variants for the model, which traditionally account for high volume sales: the C 180, the C 230, and the C 200 cdi.
Following the market launch of the C-Class sedan, the Mercedes Car Group has increased its sales in the Asia/Pacific region by 19 percent in July 2007 to the new record level of 10,500 passenger vehicles (July 2006: 8.800). Vehicle deliveries in Western Europe amounted to 65,600 units, a slight increase on the previous year (64.800). The Mercedes Car Group also posted an increase in Germany with two percent in July, delivering a total of 27,600 vehicles to customers (July 2006: 27.100).
The smart fortwo, which was launched on the market in late March 2007, continues to be very well received by customers. In July 2007, 9,800 units of the new model were sold - double the figure for July 2006 (4,700 units). In spite of focusing the overall model range on just the smart fortwo, sales of smart brand vehicles in July totaled 9,900, three percent above the previous year (July 2006: 9,600).

MINI: 18,838 (+19.1%) ... YTD 126,411 (+8.2%)

BMW Group sales grow by 20% in July
08/07/2007
Munich. The BMW Group increased its sales by 20.0% in July 2007. In the month under review, 123,017 BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce vehicles were delivered to customers (prev.yr.102,475). This means that growth is increasing even more rapidly at the beginning of the second half-year. One particularly pleasing fact is that BMW Group automobiles are very popular in all regions worldwide. The percentage growth in Europe, North America and Asia was about 20% in each case. In a comparison between countries, China and Russia once again stand out because of their extraordinarily high growth rates. The increase in sales in China was 56.6%, with 4,141 vehicles delivered (prev.yr. 2,645). Russia achieved a growth rate of 50.8%. 1,315 automobiles were delivered to customers here in July this year (prev.yr. 872).
For the year to the end of July, the number of BMW Group vehicles delivered to customers increased by 6.5% in comparison with the first seven months of the previous year (800,957) to reach 853,202 vehicles.
New models driving BMW sales forward
Sales of BMW brand automobiles rose in July by 20.2% to 104,096 vehicles (prev.yr. 86,610). In a comparison between the model series, the new X5, at 9,366 deliveries (prev.yr. 5,517/+69.8%), recorded the highest increase in sales. In terms of sales growth in July the BMW 1 Series (+ 27.4%) with the reworked 5-door and new 3-door versions came on second place. 14,723 of these were delivered in July this year (prev.yr. 11,555). The 3 Series, driven by the new Cabrio and Coupé variants, came in third place, with an increase of 23.7%. Sales over the month reached 44,833 units (prev.yr. 36,256). Since the market launch of the new BMW 3 Series Saloon in March 2005 and the variants introduced subsequently - the 3 Series Touring, Coupé and Cabrio - over a million BMW 3 Series cars have been delivered to customers (1,049,636).
For the year to the end of July 2007, 726,414 BMW automobiles were sold in total. This is an increase of 6.2% compared with the first seven months of the previous year (683,740).
Dr. Michael Ganal, member of the Board of Management of BMW AG responsible for sales and marketing: "One of the decisive reasons for our market success is undoubtedly the fact that we are well ahead of our competitors in implementing measures to reduce CO2 emissions. We have the necessary technology available. Against this background, by the autumn of this year, around 40% of the new vehicles delivered to customers by the BMW Group will have a CO2 emission level of 140g/km at most."
MINI grows by 19.1% in July
Like the BMW brand, sales of MINI in July 2007 rose dramatically by 19.1% to reach 18,838 units (prev.yr. 15,814). For the year to the end of July 2007, the number of MINI delivered to customers rose by 8.2% to 126,411 vehicles (prev.yr. 116,879).
Rolls-Royce starts delivery of the Phantom Drophead Coupé
As is the case with the BMW and MINI brands, the BMW Group's product offensive is also bearing fruit for Rolls-Royce. The new open-top Phantom Drophead Coupé has been available since July. 31 customers have already accepted delivery of this new model from the House of Rolls-Royce in the month under review. In total, the number of deliveries of Rolls-Royce vehicles rose by 62.7% in July to 83 (prev.yr. 51). For the year to the end of July, Rolls-Royce sales reached 377 units (prev.yr. 338 / +11.5%).
