Traton Group: vehicle sales 2016-2023, by vehicle brand

Through 2016 to 2020, the largest number of vehicle units sold was by the Scania and MAN divisions of the Traton Group. In 2019, MAN SE reported about 105 thousand vehicles sold and Scania reported about 99.5 thousand units. Volkswagen Truck and bus sold about 42 thousand units. Vehicle sales dropped in 2020 and was followed by a period of rapid growth through 2021 up until 2023. This was significantly influenced by the acquisition of Navistar in 2021 with Navistar, Scania, and MAN selling 80 to 85 thousand units each.

The brief period of decline in total vehicle sales was in the midst of both the COVID-19 pandemic and global semiconductor shortages. It was not only the Traton Group that suffered such losses as the number of cars sold worldwide suffered a decline during that same period.
