Someone at VW is probably looking for a new job as we speak... Shame, as there is some good product coming from them but the value isn't there. Take, for example, the low value relative to price on the ID.Buzz, plus their terrible dealers trying to mark it up even more. It has likely doomed that product launch, despite the product itself being pretty interesting.

My local VW dealer is still sitting on 4 2025 1st Editions. Advertised $2,500 off the top, but I'm sure more could be negotiated. They've been sitting on these since release

  • In the U.S., demand for Top-End vehicles remains strong, with continued growth for Mercedes-AMG; leading position in Top-End luxury segment in China
  • Mercedes-Benz Cars Q2 group sales at 453,700 units slightly lower, especially due to diligent management of stock to counter tariff impacts
  • All-new CLA debuts in Europe, incoming orders gain momentum

  • Mercedes-Benz Vans sold 93,400 vehicles in the second quarter, EV share reached 7% globally, in Europe 10%, with all regions recording an improvement against Q1 2025
Mercedes-Benz Group sold 547,100 cars and vans (-9%) in the 2nd quarter. Underlying customer demand for Mercedes-Benz Cars, particularly in the U.S. and Germany remained strong, reflected in a 26% and 7% rise in deliveries to customers. Deliveries to dealerships were carefully calibrated to navigate new global tariff policies, impacting sales of Mercedes-Benz Cars in the U.S. and China in particular. Mercedes-Benz Vans sold 93,400 units in the 2nd quarter, with a 32% year-on-year rise in electric vans, reflecting solid customer demand.

Mercedes-Benz Cars

"Overall, we see good customer demand in the U.S. and Germany for our products including our Top-End vehicles, despite tariffs impacting our global sales in the 2nd quarter. In China, in a highly competitive environment, we could keep the number one position in the Top-End luxury segment in the 1st half of the year. The all-new CLA received very positive feedback. This product marks the beginning of further electric vehicle sales growth ahead of the biggest series of car launches at Mercedes-Benz."
Mathias Geisen, Member of the Board of Management of Mercedes Benz Group AG. Marketing & Sales

"It is an honor to rejoin Mercedes-Benz USA (MBUSA) and take the helm leading North American Marketing and Sales. I look forward to building on the strong foundation in the U.S. market that continues to be fueled by robust demand in the Top-End vehicle segment, and sustained interest in our core products and long-range and performance plug-in hybrid models. With the incredible MBUSA team and the unwavering support of the best dealers in the industry, we will unlock the potential of this important market together to shape the future of this extraordinary brand."

Mercedes-Benz Cars sold 453,700 cars (-9%) in the second quarter. Overall group sales were influenced by the ongoing dynamic market environment and especially due to diligent management of stock to counter tariff impacts. Customer demand in the U.S. and Europe remained above the prior-year's level. Sales in other markets of the world increased significantly by 24% in the 2nd quarter, driven by Turkey and markets in South America.

Top-End sales represented 14.3% of overall sales. Top-End deliveries to customers (retail sales) increased by 5%, reaching 69,000 units driven by ongoing strong customer demand for Mercedes-AMG vehicles (+19%) and the G-Class (+56%). Especially in the U.S., customer demand for Top-End vehicles remained strong, leading to a surge in retail deliveries to customers of 15%. As the 2nd largest market, Mercedes-Benz strengthened its position in the U.S. with strong investments, including the reimagined Mercedes-Benz of Manhattan Flagship Dealership. In China, Mercedes-Benz retained its number one position in the Top-End luxury segment in the 1st half of the year.

The GLC remained the top-selling car globally in the 1st half of 2025. Group sales of the GLC increased by 9% in the 2nd quarter, while the new CLE proved popular with sales up 30% in Q2 and 66% in the 1st half of 2025.

Global Plug-In-Hybrid sales increased by 34% in the 2nd quarter. In Europe, the share of electrified vehicles (xEVs) reached 40%, and 21% on a global level in the second quarter.

In terms of model changeovers, 2025 is the beginning of a multi-year product and technology launch campaign. After the 1st models of the all-new CLA were introduced in Europe in the 1st half, more models and markets will follow during this year. In September, the all-new electric GLC will be revealed which will strengthen the electric vehicle portfolio in the mid-size segment.

Mercedes-Benz Vans

"The Mercedes-Benz Vans result for Q2 2025 shows a positive development of 13% relative to Q1 2025. The growth on the quarter is driven by an increased momentum in both private and commercial vans. We are encouraged to see the intensification of our efforts to deliver a premium customer experience and electrification of the portfolio, translated into a 7% growth for private vans and 42% for eVans in the first half of the year."
Sagree Sardien, Head of Mercedes-Benz Vans Sales & Marketing

Due to increased demand, deliveries to customers rose 18% on the quarter. Overall retail sales momentum remains influenced by a highly competitive market environment. German retail sales were up by 27% on the quarter supported by strong customer demand. Second quarter sales of electric vans, which increased by 32% year-on-year, lead electric vans to account for 7% of overall sales, and to total 10% of Europe sales. A further customer highlight was that Mercedes-Benz Vans concluded the largest single order of electric vans ever with 5,000 vans to be delivered to the Amazon's transportation network within the coming months.

In the 1st half of the year, commercial segment sales amounted to 82% of total sales, thus demonstrating the continued high relevance of commercial vans. Private vans represented 18% of overall sales. Beginning of next year, Mercedes-Benz Vans intends to expand its model portfolio within the private van segment with the VLE, which recently successfully underwent long-range testing traveling almost 1,100 kilometers from Stuttgart to Rome with only two short charging stops of 15 minutes each.

The 10 Bestselling Luxury Vehicles of 2025 (So Far)

SUVs of all shapes and sizes dominate the luxury charts in the U.S., but some of the brands racking up the biggest numbers may not be the ones you expect.
By [url alt=""=https://www.caranddriver.com/author/220505/joey-capparella/]Joey CapparellaUpdated: Jul 10, 2025 bestselling luxury vehicles The ManufacturersNew cars have gotten expensive regardless of the badge on their hood, but there is still a distinction between the bestselling mainstream models and the market for luxury vehicles. After rounding up the bestselling vehicles overall and the bestselling electric vehicles, we decided to rank the bestselling luxury vehicles to see which upscale marques are moving lots of metal so far in 2025. This list includes vehicles that we categorize in luxury segments, and you probably won't find it surprising that they're all crossovers. We will update this list quarterly as new sales reports are released.

Audi Q5: 22,914 units sold

2025 audi q5 Audi
There's a new Audi Q5 (pictured) that's starting to arrive in the U.S. While sales were down 7 percent through the first half, likely due to the model changeover from the old one to the new one (Audi is selling the two alongside each other for this model year), the Q5 is still in the hunt with its compact luxury crossover rivals.

Cadillac Escalade: 24,375 units sold

2025 cadillac escalade sport platinum Cadillac
At this point, the name Escalade has nearly as much brand cachet as Cadillac does, so it's no surprise that this full-size luxury SUV is the marque's bestseller. This number does not include the new electric derivative, the Escalade IQ, which sold 3766 units.

Lexus TX: 25,147 units sold

Buick Envision: 28,737 units sold

2024 buick envision Michael Simari|Car and Driver
Though Buick isn't a full-bore luxury brand like many of the others on this list, its Envision crossover competes in the compact luxury SUV segment due to its pricing, specs, and size. It was refreshed for 2024 with a new front-end design, and its sales are up considerably over this time last year.

BMW X3: 29,029 units sold

2024 bmw x5 xdrive 50e phev Michael Simari|Car and Driver
SUVs are now BMW's bread and butter, and the mid-size X5 is the bestselling BMW. Sales were flat through the first half of the year, and the current generation—which has been around since the 2019 model year—is probably nearing the end of its life cycle.

2024 lexus nx350 Lexus

Lexus RX: 52,888 units sold

2024 lexus rx 450h luxury Marc Urbano|Car and Driver
