Growth in the C-Class segment will be further boosted in 2016 by the new C-Class Coupé.

In 2015, the S-Class was once again the best-selling luxury saloon globally. It was also the clear segment leader locally in Hong Kong and Macau with a total of 671
units, 82 of which were the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class. Ongoing successful path for new SUVs and compact cars With the launches of GLE & GLC and the success of GLA, Mercedes-Benz has achieved a great result in the SUV category in both Hong Kong and Macau.

The compact cars, comprising the A- and B-Class, the CLA, the CLA Shooting Brake and the GLA, achieved new best figures in 2015. In Hong Kong, a total of 2,363
customers decided in favour of Mercedes-Benz compact cars which is 12.8% more than in the previous year. And the compact models were also very popular globally
with more than 582,531 units sold in 2015, 25.8% more than in the previous year.

Record year for Mercedes-AMG

Mercedes-AMG had a record year in 2015 both worldwide and in Hong Kong. With 68,875 units sold globally, the sports-car and high-performance brand of
Mercedes-Benz reached a new peak last year globally. And Mercedes-AMG also broke its sales record in both Hong Kong and Macau with 450 units delivered
(+34.3%). This means that Mercedes-AMG’s unit sales have more than doubled in the past two years.

Great performance for Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles

After its launch last August, Mercedes-Benz Hong Kong has handed over more than 110 units of new Vito to customers. The success of the new Vito was a part of the 10.5% increment in Mercedes-Benz Van’s sales (463 units) in 2015. Last year, Mercedes-Benz Hong Kong sold a total of 640 units (+10.9%) of Mercedes-Benz vans, trucks and buses to local businesses in Hong Kong and Macau.
