BMW Group India has recorded its highest-ever first-quarter sales in calendar year 2026. The company sold 4,567 cars between January and March, registering a strong 17% year-on-year growth despite moderate performance in the overall luxury car market.
The company said that every month during the January-March period delivered record-breaking sales, highlighting strong demand across its vehicle portfolio. Electric vehicles played a major role in this growth. BMW and MINI together sold 1,185 electric vehicles during the quarter, an increase of 83% compared to the same period last year. EVs now account for 26% of BMW Group India’s total sales.
BMW Group India also maintained more than 70% market share in India’s luxury EV segment. The company said that its expanding charging network and wider electric vehicle portfolio have helped strengthen its position in the market. Customers now have access to more than 6,000 charging points across India.
Long-wheelbase models remained one of the strongest contributors to sales. These models accounted for more than 50% of total sales, reaching 2,256 units, while Sports Activity Vehicles contributed 65% of overall sales with 2,966 units sold.
Hardeep Singh Brar said the company entered 2026 in a strong position and plans to launch 27 new products during the year, including new-generation models and special editions. Four of these products have already been launched in the first quarter.
