BMW Automobile Sales
BMW's monthly automobile sales increased 12.2 percent for the month, at 17,342 versus 15,463 in February 2006. This is due, in part, to the strong reception of the new 3 Series Coupe and the new 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged inline six-cylinder engines available in all variants of the 3 Series. For the first two months combined, BMW automobile sales increased 6.3 percent to 32,871 versus 30,918 reported in the same period last year.
BMW Sports Activity Vehicle Sales
February sales of BMW Sports Activity Vehicles were up 27.6 percent, to 4,932 vehicles over the 3,865 reported in the same month a year ago, due to strong sales of both the X3 and the new X5. Year-to-date, BMW SAV sales increased to 9,164 vehicles from 7,684 in 2006, up 19.3 percent.
Certified Pre-Owned
BMW's Certified Pre-Owned vehicle sales decreased 10.3 percent in February -- following a record February in 2006 -- to 5,706 vehicles over the 6,364 reported in February 2006. Year-to-date, CPO sales are down to 11,170 vehicles over the 12,125 reported in the same period in 2006 for a decrease of 7.9 percent.
MINI Brand MINI Automobiles
MINI USA reported February sales of 2,368, down 12.0 percent compared to the 2,690 sold in February 2006. MINI USA also reported sales of 4,418 for the first two months of 2006, a decrease of 21.6 percent over the 5,634 sold in the same period a year ago. The sales reflect the lower inventory associated with the model changeover. With the all-new MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S introduction on February 17th, sales are expected to increase in March.
