BMW achieved record sales in first quarter
Automotive group BMW delivered more than 604,000 vehicles worldwide in the first quarter of 2018, an increase of 3% compared to the same period of last year.

The company said this is the first time it has exceeded the 600,000-sales mark so early in the year.

It came off the back of BMW’s best-ever single month in March, when it delivered a total of more than 256,000 vehicles. 

During the first three months of 2018, BMW saw its sales increase 3.9% in Asia, 6.2% in Mainland China and 9.0% in Latin America. However, there was a 1.1% fall in sales in Europe and a 0.4% dip in sales in the US.
