Mercedes-Benz announces record sales for its AMG division

Meanwhile, AMG has announced that 2013 was the most success year in the firm's history with a total of 32,200 sales thanks in part to the success of the new A45 AMG and CLA45 AMG. The announcement marks the first time Mercedes-Benz has officially confirmed annual sales figures for its AMG division. AMG's 2012 sales were believed to be around 20,000.

In announcing its latest annual sales figures, AMG also confirmed the soon to be discontinued SLS AMG had achieved over 10,000 sales worldwide since its addition to the line-up in 2010.
