Riding on the wave of sales growth achieved in 2014 and during the first quarter of 2015, Mercedes Benz hopes to get back to its numero uno position this year, according to a top company official.
The German luxury car maker, which sold 10,200 cars in 2014 and 3,566 cars in the January-March quarter — 385 cars more than nearest competitor Audi — hopes to register a double-digit growth in 2015. “We have grown 40 per cent in the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter will be even better. So, we are confident of achieving a strong double-digit growth in 2015,” Eberhard Kern, managing director and CEO, Mercedes-Benz India, told Business Standard.
