BMW Group Canada Reports Q1 2025 Sales Results. – AutoMart Canada

Richmond Hill, ON. BMW Group Canada (BMW and MINI
brands combined) reported sales of 7,308 vehicles for the first
quarter of 2025, securing an increase of +10.0% over the same period
in 2024.   

“We generated strong momentum in the first quarter of 2025,” said
Andrew Scott, president and CEO, BMW Group Canada.  “We laid a solid
foundation thanks to improvements in dealer satisfaction ratings and
strong product recognition, which lead to positive sales results.

“We’re starting the year ahead of where we were last year at this
time, which puts us in a strong position.  Purely electric vehicle
sales are up, as are sales of our high-performance BMW M products. 
With strong additions to our product portfolio arriving – such as the
BMW M5 Touring, for example – we look forward to driving excitement
among customers and fans this year.

“I’m pleased that our focus on supporting and communicating with our
retail partners made such a positive impact on our Canadian Automobile
Dealers Association (CADA) survey results,” continued Scott.  “Both
BMW and MINI brands moved up four spots in the latest survey, marking
some of our largest dealer satisfaction improvements in recent years. 
That’s a great achievement given the challenging environment we’re
working in.  Communication is critical right now as we navigate market
uncertainties, and we will continue to work on this important
relationship as the year proceeds.  We are prepared for the challenges
that may present themselves this year and are stronger for working on
them together.  I thank each retail partner for their dedication to
our customers’ mobility needs.

“Our strength in the field of electrification was proven once again
in the first quarter through the continued recognition of the BMW i4. 
After earning the Car of the Year title from the Automobile
Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) in 2023, AJAC provided
further recognition to this remarkable model by naming it 2025
Electric Car of the Year in February.  AJAC also awarded our
innovative Digital Key Plus technology with the Best Safety Innovation
Award in March.  We appreciate these tributes to BMW’s commitment to
safety and innovation from this well-respected group of automotive experts.

“Now, we prepare for the launch of the Neue Klasse, the biggest
future-focussed project in our company’s history,” concluded Scott. 
“The first model of the Neue Klasse was announced in March at the BMW
Group Annual Conference.  It will be the BMW iX3, and it will arrive
in Canada in 2026.”
