TRATON GROUP (8TRA.DE,8TRA.ST,TRATF,TRATY) Monday reported preliminary first-quarter 2026 unit sales of 68,600 vehicles, down 6% from 73,100 units a year earlier.
However, all-electric vehicle sales rose 38% year-over-year to 860 units.
Among its brands, Scania saw sales decline 6% to 21,000 vehicles, impacted by weaker demand in South America, particularly Brazil.
MAN Truck & Bus reported a 14% increase in unit sales to 23,600 vehicles, supported by strong order momentum in Europe.
International Motors posted a 21% drop in sales to 13,300 units, as improving demand in the U.S. has yet to translate into deliveries.
Volkswagen Truck & Bus recorded a 20% decline in sales to 10,800 units, reflecting ongoing weakness in South American markets.
