While the demand for trucks in Eastern Europe continued to shrink, Turkey's performance was particularly bad, but Daimler trucks faced heavy pressure and achieved a 14% increase in Eastern Europe, bringing Daimler's market share to 51.2% in the region. Due to the relocation of the Daimler passenger car to the North American business system in 2012, the Orion passenger car was discontinued, and its weak performance in the North American market had the greatest impact on the decline in global sales of Daimler buses.

Volvo predicts that the global bus market this year will continue its downturn in 2012.

MAN Commercial Vehicles: Continued Shrinkage in Europe
Daimler, Volvo, Mann, Scania and other multinational commercial car companies have been drying out their respective half-year results. Like last year, the living environment this year is still severe. The commercial vehicle market in developed countries tends to be saturated, and the growth is sluggish.
