Mercedes-Benz Vans achieves best ever first quarter

May 2023 News

Mercedes-Benz Vans is consistently pursuing its goal of building the most desirable vans, and increased its sales by a total of 12% in the first three months of the year. Worldwide 98 900 vehicles were sold, more than ever before in a first quarter. The share of all-electric vans rose by 22% to 3600 vehicles. The eVans’ share of total sales increased to 3,6%. This once again underlines the company’s claim to be a leader in the field of electric vans.

South Africa is poised to make an impact in the market of all-electric vans by 2024. Earlier in the year, Mercedes-Benz Vans South Africa announced that the much-anticipated eSprinter will be available in South Africa by 2024. This forms part of the goal to embark on a new era of sustainable mobility, particularly for businesses and individuals looking for a cost-effective, environmentally-friendly mode of transportation. By introducing its first electric van to the South African market, Mercedes-Benz Vans South Africa reaffirms its assertion that it is at the forefront of electric van technology. Mercedes-Benz Vans South Africa remains committed to being the leader in the field of electric vans within the South African market.
