BMW USA Sales Up 7% In March 2015

Seasoned BimmerFile readers know that BMW is on a perpetual race to the top mostly against Audi and Mercedes rivals. With sales numbers for March released today, it appears that our favorite car company grabbed once again the first spot of the U.S. luxury car market. This month’s performance is primarily driven – no pun intended – by sales of the 2 series, 3/4 series, and 5 series. More details after the break.
**Official Release:** Sales of BMW brand vehicles increased 6.9% in March for a total of 34,310 compared to 32,107 vehicles sold in March, 2014.
