“Mercedes-Benz EVs accounted for 13% of our total group sales volume in Q1,” Dimitris Psillakis, president and CEO of Mercedes-Benz USA, said, reporting how the marque is doing so far in 2024.

Which, on a percentage basis, is quite good.

Ford, which describes itself as “America’s No. 2 electric vehicle brand,” had Q1 EV sales of 3.9%.

Mercedes has three EVs in its U.S. showrooms:

• EQB, of which it sold 671
• EQE, 5,113
• EQS, 2,552

That is a total of 8,336 of the 66,570 passenger vehicles it sold in Q1.

(To be fair to Ford, it sold 508,083 vehicles in Q1, of which 20,233 were EVs.)

But here’s something interesting about the Mercedes sales: It sold 15,096 GLE SUVs.

That’s about 23% of total sales.
