BMW India has past Mercedes-Benz auto sales in India by selling 1,232 cars in the country during the January-April period. Mercedes-Benz sold 1,014 units in the same period, thus losing its number one position in the luxury car segment. In India, Audi is a distant third with January-April sales of 496 units.
The rapid growth of BMW India may be partially due to the number of new models the auto maker introduces on a regular basis; the new 7 Series, 3 Series, X5 and the diesel variant of the X3. There are currently a dozen BMW dealerships in India with an additional 10 slated for year end 2010. It appears BMW's expansion plans are heading in the right direction.
