FRANKFURT -(Dow Jones)- German auto maker Daimler AG (DAI) said Thursday it sold more buses and trucks in 2008, despite slumping demand in key markets in Europe, Japan and the U.S.
The company reported trucks sales of 472,100 units, an increase of 1% over the previous year, as demand rose in the Middle East, Asia and Latin America.
Bus sales rose 4% over the previous year to 40,600 units. The company said demand for German-made buses has never been so good.
