Daimler Truck (ISIN DE000DTR0CK8) sold 91,260 vehicles in the third quarter of 2026, up 26.00 percent from 72,277 a year earlier, according to Daimler Truck on October 8, 2026. According to Markets Insider on October 7, 2026, UBS maintained a Hold rating and set a EUR 44.00 price target.

North America drives the sales rebound

The regional split gives the headline growth more substance. Trucks North America sold 45,629 vehicles, up 51.00 percent from 30,225 in the third quarter of 2025, while Mercedes-Benz Trucks increased deliveries 13.00 percent to 40,362.

Reuters reported on October 8, 2026 that the stronger North American and Mercedes-Benz Trucks performance offered an early indication that management's stronger second-half outlook was taking shape.

Electric sales remain the weak spot

The sales mix was uneven. Daimler Buses delivered 5,394 vehicles, down 16.00 percent from 6,443, while battery-electric truck and bus sales fell 28.00 percent to 1,207 from 1,679.

The comparison matters because the overall increase came mainly from conventional truck operations. For investors, the November reporting date will show whether the volume improvement translated into revenue and profitability across the group.

November results set the next test

Daimler Truck said in its October 8, 2026 release that it will report detailed group and segment financial and non-financial figures on November 6, 2026. That date is the next scheduled checkpoint for the 2026 outlook and for the impact of North American demand.
