What was BMW’s most successful range for 2023?
Naturally, our good Bavarians did some extra calculating to check on popularity ratings for their machines – and for 2023, the hype bikes of the year were none other than BMW’s GS range.
Here are some numbers recorded for BMW’s GS family in 2023:
How were BMW’s FY2023 EV sales?
Understandably, BMW’s electric motorcycle sales did exceedingly well, thanks to strategic positioning in more urban-centric markets.
Apparently, the company sold more of their new CE 04’s than expected, racking up a nice +44% of extra sales for 2023 alone.
Even BMW’s C 400 GT and C 400 X scooters did well, showing off a nice +17.9% uptick in sales with 20,460 units rolling out to happy customers.
A successful year indeed.
What does BMW’s Head have to say about this year’s sales?
With continual brand expansion into new markets, Markus Flasch feels fully stable going into 2024:
