Naamsa’s new vehicle sales report for March 2022 shows that the X3 is BMW’s best-selling vehicle in South Africa.
The latest statistics revealed many interesting insights, such as the fact the X3 sold roughly double as many units as BMW’s second most popular car – the legendary 3 Series.
Also noteworthy is that the new 2 Series performed much better than the X1 in terms of sales, despite being a more expensive coupe compared to the X1 being a small SUV – which is South Africa’s favourite body style.
BMW’s X4, X5, and X7 SUVs were among the top sellers, too, indicating strong demand for the brand’s high-riders – with starting prices of just over R1 million for the X4 and up to R1.8 million for the X7.
In addition, BMW sold a handful of electric cars, with the new iX SUV proving to be more popular than the established i3 hatchback last month.
