Mercedes-Benz Canada announced today that its Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz division has celebrated a significant milestone in December by surpassing the 10,000 unit threshold this year in Canada for the first time. To mark this record-breaking achievement, Mercedes-Benz Canada President and CEO Marcus Breitschwerdt, and Pre-Owned Vice President Neal Bodack, were pleased to present the 10,000th Canadian customer with a complimentary Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty upon delivery of his 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 at Mercedes-Benz Thornhill.
Mercedes-Benz Canada has underscored its commitment to growing the company’s Pre-Owned business through the expansion of a dedicated team and continued investments in infrastructure across the country. For example, this year Mercedes-Benz was pleased to develop indoor Pre-Owned showrooms at Mercedes-Benz owned retail operations in Rive-Sud, Mississauga, and Richmond, which join already existing dealer locations that offer customers indoor Pre-Owned showrooms in Montreal, Toronto, Burlington, Edmonton, and Vancouver.
Certified Pre-Owned customers enjoy a myriad of benefits when purchasing a Mercedes-Benz vehicle, including the piece-of mind that comes from a 150-point certification inspection comprised of a comprehensive review of the vehicle’s appearance, safety systems, electrical systems and components, undercarriage, drivetrain, engine performance and fluid levels. In addition, every customer will receive coverage up to 7 years or 160,000 km, and the confidence that comes from 24-hour roadside assistance and knowing the complete service history of their Mercedes-Benz.
“Our dynamic product range offers fascinating designs, unmatched refinement and some of the most advanced safety and driver assistance systems in the industry. This powerful combination has allowed Mercedes-Benz sales to grow exponentially in Canada, and I am also very pleased to report that significant, sustained growth of Mercedes-Benz Pre-Owned sales has now propelled us beyond the 10,000 unit mark in Canada year-to-date for the first time ever,” said Marcus Breitschwerdt, President and CEO of Mercedes-Benz Canada. “Exceptional performance and unequaled value on the Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz side demonstrates that we have remained true to the historic origins of our brand and the guiding principle that we will always offer our customers the best or nothing. Regardless of whether it is a new or Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz, our entire team and dealership network is steadfastly committed to ensuring every vehicle that displays the three-pointed star offers our customers unrivaled durability and the finest ownership experience in the industry.”
