January '02 7 Series Sales Report (archive)

This month we get to report the first sales of the new E65 7 Series in the United States. Thanks to the new 745i sales of the 7 Series are up a tremendous 85% over January of 2001.

Production of the 745Li will start in March so we should be reporting the first sales of this model in April.

By way of comparison, sales of the Mercedes Benz S Class totaled only 1,256 units this January, down a significant 31.4% from last January.

Exact figures published yesterday by BMW NA are as follows:
