    >BMW reported 91,237 vehicle sales in the U.S. during the second quarter of 2024, 4% more than a year ago. Together with the Mini brand, which was down 22% at 5,898, the wider BMW Group sold 97,135 cars.

    >Meanwhile, BMW’s all-electric car sales noticeably improved, almost beating the previous records and expanding its EV share to over 15%. In Q2, BMW’s EV sales in the U.S. amounted to 14,081, 24% more than a year ago.

    >BMW’s EV lineup includes four models: the i4, i5, i7, and iX. In the most recent sales report, the German manufacturer revealed individual sales results for each model for the first time. Previously, they were counted together with internal combustion engine equivalents (4 Series, 5 Series, and 7 Series).

    >As it turns out, the primary EV is the BMW i4, with 7,066 sales in Q2, representing over 50% of the total volume (14,081). The next two most popular models were the iX with 3,545 units and the all-new i5 with 2,541 units. The more exclusive BMW i7 noted 929 sales.

    I traded my Mach E in for an i4.

    The BMW blows the mustang out of the water in every way.

    Performance, build quality, interior, and tech are in a totally different world.

    Range and charging speed notably better.

    BMW makes really good EVs.

    Dealership experience is amazing too.

    Jack in the Box tacos are still 2/$0.99 on their app and are better, imo.
