BMW Group has unveiled first-half year results showing sales up 13.1% to 696,000 vehicles, while June saw volumes increase 12.2% to 143,000 units.

On the product side, the BMW X1, 5 Series GT and Z4 models, together with the BMW 7 Series, were among the main growth drivers in the first half of the year.

The new BMW 5 Series Sedan posted a strong start – around 25,000 models have been sold since its European launch in mid-March.

“In some cases, automobile markets are recovering much faster than expected,” said BMW member of the management board sales and marketing Ian Robertson. “We had a successful first half-year with retail growth of 13.1%, and were able to maintain our position as the world’s leading premium manufacturer.”

“We aim to continue this upward trend in the second half of the year. Besides the new BMW 5 Series Sedan, a large number of new models, including the new BMW 5 Series Touring, the new BMW X3 and the MINI Countryman, will help us achieve this.”
