Executive message
 

"Our Mercedes-Benz Cars division recorded satisfying September sales with 2 047 units, giving the brand a market share of over 10%. On a year-to-date basis sales now total
15 967 units providing for a market share of 9,5%, an increase of almost 1% compared to the same period in 2008.
Despite the very challenging market conditions, we are pleased that we have been able to enjoy relatively good sales. We believe that our focussed approach and our strong partnership with our dealers, are key contributing factors. Once again our loyal customers have supported us well, while we are seeing an increasing number of non-traditional Mercedes-Benz customers, who are converting to our brand."

MBSA president and CEO, Dr. Hansgeorg Niefer.
