BERLIN (Reuters) – Daimler Truck Group reported a 13% drop in first-quarter sales on Tuesday, as the markets normalize as expected when compared with the same quarter the year before.

“The unit sales in Q1 2024 are reflecting the expected normalization of global truck markets, and a weak environment in key markets in Asia,” said management board chairman Martin Daum.
