Waiting List For Mercedes-Benz Cars In Malaysia Is Up To Six Months
Supply disruptions and high order volumes have reportedly caused the waiting list for new Mercedes-Benz models to reach six months.
The supply disruption was caused by the movement control order in Shanghai, China, said Vice President of Sales and Marketing Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM), Michael Jopp.
Jopp also reportedly anticipates double-digit growth in vehicle sales this year while not providing the exact order statistics.
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of MBM, Sagree Sardien said, sales growth will return to single digits starting next year following the increase in inflation and the implementation of high interest rates.
Last Thursday, the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) predicted total vehicle sales (TIV) 2023 to be 636,300 units for new vehicles.
Sagree claims that MBM has experienced strong demand for three recently released electric vehicle (EV) models, the EQS 450+, EQB 350 4MATIC, and EQC 400 4MATIC. MBM now offers booking assurances in the system for specific models without requiring the buyer to physically see the model being purchased.
