Percentage changes are based on unrounded figures
Scania Vehicles & Services increased its unit sales by 7% in the second quarter of 2026. The main drivers were the launch of the NEXT ERA product line in the Chinese market and the government supported “Move Brasil” incentive program in Brazil. In the first half of 2026, unit sales amounted to 47,300 vehicles, broadly unchanged compared with the prior-year period.
MAN Truck & Bus recorded a 3% increase in unit sales in the second quarter of 2026. The German market, which is particularly important for MAN, developed less dynamically than the rest of Europe. In the first half of 2026, MAN’s unit sales were 8% above the prior-year level.
International Motors posted a 8% decline in unit sales in the second quarter of 2026 compared with the prior-year quarter, marking an improvement compared with the first quarter of 2026. The US market recently showed encouraging signs of a recovery in customer demand, which is now gradually being reflected in unit sales and is expected to become more visible in the second half of 2026. For the first half of 2026, unit sales were down 15% year-on-year.
Volkswagen Truck & Bus (VWTB) recorded a 15% increase in unit sales in the second quarter of 2026. Here, too, the government supported incentive program in Brazil had a positive impact. In the first half of 2026, VWTB recorded a 4% decline in unit sales due to the weak first quarter.
