The latest model of Mercedes-Benz S-Class - W222 has been launched on the market for nearly a year. It is known that this product has achieved great success with sales reaching more than 100,000 cars worldwide.
According to Mercedes-Benz, this is the best sales level of any generation of S-Class in the first year of its launch on the market.
At the same time, they also hope that the upcoming S-Class variant, the S-Class Coupe, can also achieve this sales level.
It is known that the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe is a trendy convertible car, possessing a wheelbase similar to famous models such as "Maybach" and "Pullman".
However, information on the growth rate of Mercedes-Benz S-Class sales shows that this is not entirely accurate.
Accordingly, since the beginning of the year, Mercedes has sold 75,391 Mercedes-Benz S-Class cars. This number is double that of the same period last year and equivalent to a growth rate of 105.8%.
So if the Mercedes-Benz S-Class W222 is to become the best-selling S-Class ever, it will have to achieve even greater sales.
However, this product still achieved amazing success and attracted many customers from developed markets.
Of these, China is Mercedes-Benz's largest market, with nearly half of S-Class sales coming from this market.
The amount of Mercedes-Benz S-Class sold here accounts for 35% of total sales revenue, while in the US this ratio is 25%.
This shows that not only is the Chinese economy growing, but there is also a rapidly expanding upper class.
The market for high-end products like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class in China has become even more "fertile" than in leading developed countries like the US.
At the same time, this is also the market with the youngest customers among S-Class buyers, most Mercedes-Benz S-Class buyers in China are just under 40 years old.
With this average age, Mercedes-Benz S-Class buyers in China are 15 years younger than their US counterparts.
