October 2017: BMW sold 9,405 iPerformance and electric cars

BMW’s electric offensive continues and the company is on track to reach its target of 100,000 electric and hybrids sold in 2017. In total, 9,405 plug-in BMW i Series, BMW iPerformance and MINI Electrics were sold in October.

That works out to a gain of 60.3% year-over-year, and also enabled the company to hit plug-in share of nearly 4.8% last month. Year-to-date, BMW has delivered 78,096 electric vehicles (which is up 63.7% year-over-year).

The i3 was one of the best plug-in models for BMW in October with 2,851 sales.

Highest take rate of electric and plug-in hybrids continues to be in Scandinavia – 30 percent – but markets like US and France are also showing a healthy increase – 8 percent.

In the US, BMW sells the i3 and i8, along with the 330e, 530e, 740e, X5 xDrive40e and MINI Countryman hybrid. Two new electric cars are slotted for next year – BMW i3s and i8 Roadster.
