BMW Group Reaches Two Million Electric Vehicles

Europe’s strong EV demand now sets the pace for BMW’s rollout.

Overview

  • BMW Group, which on Tuesday announced its two‑millionth battery‑electric car, marked the milestone with an i5 M60 xDrive built in Dingolfing for a customer in Spain.
  • It took the company almost 11 years to deliver its first million EVs after the i3 launched in 2013, then about two years to reach the second million.
  • BMW now builds at least one all‑electric model at every German plant and uses mixed lines that assemble EVs and gas models together to flex output with demand.
  • Demand has split by region, as Europe logged a 28 percent EV sales jump in 2025 while U.S. BEV sales fell 16.7 percent after federal credits ended and China declined by double digits.
  • BMW targets at least 50 percent EV share by 2030, up from 17.9 percent last year, with the iX3 already in showrooms, an i3 sedan debuting this year, and an electric X5 and three‑row iX7 planned next.
