BMW posted robust yearly sales growth of 8.4 percent with a combined sales of 2.52 million vehicles delivered globally last year and doubling its sales of fully-electric cars, said a company report, positioning BMW as the top leading premium car brand worldwide.

The Munich-based auto manufacturer’s sales count included numbers from MINI and Rolls-Royce as well. BMW alone sold around 2.2 million vehicles, which is an increase of 9.1 percent compared to 2020, an all-time-high breaking pre-pandemic 2019’s record.
