BMW Motorrad has done well in the past year. The German has achieved the highest sales in its company history, with 202,895 motorcycles and scooters handed over to customers, an increase of +4.4% compared to the previous year.
“I would like to thank our customers worldwide for the great trust they have placed in us again in 2022. The record result in 2022 clearly proves that our attractive range and brand are very popular with customers. I look forward to our 100th anniversary in 2023 with great pleasure and confidence.”
Germany will remain the largest internal market for BMW Motorrad in 2022 with 24,129 motorcycles and scooters sold. With the record 21,223 vehicles handed over to customers, this led to an increase of 6.7% compared to the previous year. France, among other countries, delivered a good pan-European result for BMW Motorrad.
In other regions, several countries ended 2022 with a record year. In Asia (46,332 units / +7.4%), both China (15,404 units / +7.7%) and India (7,282 units / +40.4%) achieved their best results to date.
Growth was also driven in North America (20,295 units / +11%) by US records (17,690 units / +10.4%). BMW Motorrad’s record year was also driven by the Latin American markets (25,480 units / +17.2%). Brazil led the way with sales of a record 13,051 vehicles, an increase of 17% over the previous year.
In 2022, the boxer models R 1250 GS and R 1250 GS Adventure again achieved strong sales figures. With a total of almost 60,000 units, the two Adventure models made an important contribution to BMW Motorrad’s successful overall result.
The 4-cylinder sports models were also sold very successfully. The S 1000 RR in particular has strengthened its top position in the sports segment, with more than 10,000 units sold in the past year. Together with the S 1000 R and the S 1000 XR and the exclusive M 1000 RR, almost 23,500 units of the four-cylinder family were sold.
The single-cylinder models G 310 R and G 310 GS also sold well. With more than 24,000 motorcycles sold worldwide, these two agile all-rounders have become a permanent fixture in the BMW Motorrad portfolio and will certainly contribute to the overall success in 2022.
