BMW Group has reached a significant milestone, with cumulative global deliveries of its fully electric vehicles surpassing 2 million units. The 2 millionth vehicle, an i5 M60 xDrive, rolled off the production line at BMW’s Dingolfing plant in Germany and was delivered to a customer in Spain. Including plug-in hybrid models, BMW has delivered a total of approximately 3.5 million electrified vehicles since 2013. The company achieved this impressive feat in just two years, doubling its fully electric vehicle deliveries from 1 million to 2 million, thanks to an expanded product lineup and robust production support from the Dingolfing plant.
BMW anticipates that by the first half of 2026, electrified models will account for more than one-fourth of its global sales, with fully electric vehicle deliveries projected to reach around 204,000 units. While sales in the Chinese market have experienced a downturn, growth in European and American markets has effectively counterbalanced this pressure. BMW remains steadfast in its commitment to achieving a 50% sales share for fully electric models by 2030. However, the 2 million-unit milestone was reached 8 months later than initially planned, due to challenges such as supply chain disruptions, inadequate charging infrastructure, and heightened competition in the Chinese market.
Currently, BMW is expediting the rollout of its Neue Klasse platform, with several models based on this cutting-edge architecture already in production or slated for mass production. This strategic move represents a pivotal step in BMW’s transition towards a dedicated fully electric vehicle platform, further solidifying its position in the rapidly evolving electric mobility landscape.
