October was a good month for the BMW brand in the US. BMW sales totaled 25,440 vehicles for the month 2019, an increase of 9.4 percent. Year-to-date, BMW sales in the U.S. are up 3.8 percent.

Unsurprisingly crossovers continue to fuel the growth accounting for 57% of BMW sales in the US for the year. Increased availability of the U.S-built BMW X3 (+18.3% YTD) and BMW X5 (+27.6% YTD), and the addition of the BMW X7, have been key drivers to this.
