The company said Monday it delivered 108,766 Mercedes vehicles during the month, helped by strong sales increases in emerging markets such as Brazil, Russia, India and China. That was 7.3 percent more than in May of last year. Germany's automakers recorded strong profits in the first quarter thanks largely to increasing sales outside Europe.
