According to Daimler Truck, unit sales significantly increased in 2022. With 520,291 vehicles, 14.2% more trucks and buses were delivered than in the previous year, despite bottlenecks in the availability of components. The Trucks North America segment significantly increased its unit sales by 15.2% to 186,779 units, driven by a high product demand.
