Sales Director Pieter Nota told the German Press Agency on Tuesday: “This means that we are also number one in the global premium segment with the BMW brand – and by a considerable margin.” The group as a whole, which also includes the Mini and Rolls-Royce brands, “achieved solid sales growth for the year as a whole,” said Nota, and was confident about the current year: “We expect further profitable growth in 2022.” BMW wants to present the full sales figures in a week.
An important growth driver in the group was the ramp-up of e-mobility, said Nota. With the delivery of more than 100,000 fully electric vehicles, the announced goal has been achieved. After only nine months, BMW had set new records with sales of 1.932 million cars, sales of EUR 82.8 billion and pre-tax earnings of EUR 13.2 billion.
