BMW Group sales continued their long-standing upward trend in August with a total of 165,431 vehicles delivered to customers around the world, an increase of 5.7 percent on the same month last year.
This result brings the year-to-date sales total to 1,508,659 — up 5.5 percent compared with the same period last year and the first time ever the company has sold over one and a half million vehicles in the first eight months of a year.
“The BMW Group’s ongoing sales success across all our premium brands underlines the strength of our product line-up,” said Ian Robertson, member of the BMW AG Board of Management with responsibility for Sales and Marketing BMW.
“Sales are increasing across the range and our electrified models are proving extremely popular — we’ve already sold more alternative drive vehicles this year than in the whole of 2015,” he continued.
The BMW X range continues to drive sales: with 16,612 units delivered worldwide in August, monthly sales of the BMW X1 doubled year-on-year; BMW X3 sales increased 29.7 percent (12,663); BMW X4 deliveries rose 10.6 percent (4,118) and BMW X5 sales climbed 9.9 percent with a total of 12,321 delivered to customers.
Sales of the BMW 7 Series in August more than tripled compared with the same month last year — more than 5,000 of the all-new flagship vehicle were delivered to customers around the world in the month.
