BMW achieved record sales of more than 2.2 million vehicles from its BMW brand in 2021, the automaker said last week, outstripping 2019 sales even while a global chip shortage crisis is ongoing.
“For the first time ever, over 2.2 million vehicles of the BMW brand were sold,” a spokesperson said. “BMW is in first place in the global premium car segment in the last year.”
Sales chief Pieter Nota had revealed the record-breaking sales figure in an interview where he said that the BMW Group, including the Mini and Rolls-Royce brands, “achieved solid sales growth” in the year and that the automaker “expect further profitable growth into 2022”.
The automaker is due to report its full annual sales figures this week.
