In the third quarter of 2022, BMW brand sales in the U.S. totaled 78,031vehicles, a 3.2% increase from the 75,619 vehicles sold in the third quarter of 2021.
Increased availability of the battery electric BMW iX Sports Activity Vehicle and BMW i4 Gran Coupe fueled sales growth in all three months of the third quarter. As a result, the company also set new quarterly benchmarks for both battery electric (4,337) and plug-in hybrid electric deliveries (10,858 BEV & PHEV combined). BMW's battery electric lineup will expand in the fourth quarter as the first-ever fully electric BMW i7 Sedan begins arriving at U.S. dealerships.
'The customer demand and enthusiasm for BMW's electric vehicles has been there from the start,' said Sebastian Mackensen, President and CEO, BMW of North America. 'With the support of our dealer partners, we expect this momentum to accelerate through the fourth quarter, resulting in a strong finish to the year.'
BMW Sports Activity Vehicles continue to be an important part of the company's sales success in the U.S., accounting for over 62% of sales year-to-date. In total, sales of Sports Activity Vehicles are up 16.6% through the first three quarters of the year. An all-new addition to the line-up, the hybrid-electric BMW XM, was unveiled at the end of September and will begin arriving in showrooms early next year.
