Mercedes-Benz has record November sales
Year-to-date sales for the company are also a record -- 273,622 up 14.5% -- the company said.
"As the post-storm rebuilding gets underway, we're seeing a strong sales pace for the industry at large which will carry MBUSA to its highest year on record," said Steve Cannon, U.S. CEO, in a statement.
The entry-level C-Class Mercedes-Benz was the volume leader at 8,585, up 2.5, followed by more upscale E-Class, which jumped 59.5% to 8,126. Unlike most luxury brands these days, a majority of M-B's November sales were passenger cars. Its top-selling crossover SUV was the M-Class at 3,894
Those vehicles are also the leaders year-to-date: C-Class with 73,940, E-Class with 58,187 and M-Class with 33,860, the company said.
Sales of the M-B high-performance AMG models -- ranging up to the SLS AMG supercar -- have grown 30.8% year-to-date to 6,176. Diesel model sales for the year are up 7.9% to 13,738.
The company also sold 704 Smart cars in November, up 70%, and 1,630 Sprinter vans, up 56%.
