- Despite ongoing supply bottlenecks and Covid-related lockdowns in China, 217,100 all-electric vehicles (BEVs) have been handed over to customers by the end of June (H1 2021: 170,900)
- Strong demand: BEV order intake in Western Europe up by 40 percent
- Growth driver: BEV deliveries in China increase more than three-fold to 63,500 units amid Covid restrictions (H1 2021: 18,300)
- Hildegard Wortmann, Group Board Member Sales: “We successfully continued our electric ramp-up despite challenging conditions, especially in the second quarter. Demand continues to be strong and we expect an improving supply situation in the second half of the year. June BEV deliveries showed a clear upward trend already to the monthly levels of Q4 2021. We are working intensively to reduce the high order bank and the delivery times for our customers and are committed to our goal of a BEV share of 7 to 8 percent for the full year.”
