Munich. The BMW Group has just reached a new milestone in its strategy of electrification: two million all-electric vehicles delivered to customers around the world since the launch of the BMW i3 at the end of 2013. The figure comes at a time of especially important for the company, as the new generation of models based on Neue Klasse begins to take hold and the BMW iX3 becomes one of its main protagonists.

In addition to battery-powered electric vehicles, the BMW Group has delivered approximately 3.5 million vehicles electrified since 2013, considering also the models of plug-in hybrids. The data reflects how it has changed the strategy of the company for a little over a decade and, above all, where you are pointing now in its next phase.

During the first half of 2026, more than one out of every four vehicles sold by the BMW Group at the global level was completely electric. In Europe, this trend is even more evident: battery-powered electric vehicles accounted for about 28% of the total sales during the first six months of the year.

Neue Klasse drives the sales of BMW's electric

The growth of electric vehicles from BMW coincides with the arrival of the Neue Klasse, a new generation of technology that aims to transform a large part of the range of the company.

The BMW iX3 is the first production model of this new stage and is proving electrification can become an increasingly important part of the business of BMW. Since its world premiere, one of every three vehicles BMW electric charge in Europe has been iX3.

The result is even more significant within the family X3. Currently, one out of every two vehicles X3 managers in Europe corresponds to the version totally electric, a clear sign that customers are moving more quickly this technology to its purchase decisions.

Jochen Goller, member of the Board of Management of BMW AG responsible for Customer, Brands and Sales, emphasized precisely the role it is playing Neue Klasse in this growth, and noted that the company is approaching the milestone of 100,000 new orders for the BMW iX3 in Europe.

The response of the market is also reflected in the figures for the second quarter of 2026. The european sales of electric vehicles battery of the BMW Group grew by 38% to reach 81,445 units, primarily driven by increased availability of the BMW iX3.

BMW iX3 mark the beginning of a new stage

Beyond being another member of the family of electric vehicles from BMW, the iX3 represents a technological transition much more extensive.

The Neue Klasse was designed to introduce a new generation of technologies, architecture, electrical, software and digital solutions that can later be extended to different models of the range BMW.

Therefore, the commercial success of the iX3 is particularly relevant. This is not only to know how many units you can sell an SUV electric, but to observe the response of the market to a generation of vehicles developed from the beginning around electrification.

The strategy also begins to move to other segments. In August of 2026, the BMW Group in Munich began the serial production of the new BMW i3, the second production model of the Neue Klasse.

Even before its commercial launch, BMW notes that the new i3 is seeing a strong demand from the opening of orders. The company is expected to rapidly increase production to respond to the interest of the customers.

In this way, the iX3 and i3 represent the first visible steps of a family of technology that will have an increasingly important role within the future of BMW.

Two million electric: the BMW i3 Neue Klasse

To reach the two million electric vehicles delivered in permits you to put in perspective the path travelled by BMW.

The modern history of the electromobility of the company began with the BMW i3, presented as a model fully electric, with a philosophy of design, and manufacturing different to that of the conventional vehicles of the brand.

Since then, BMW progressively expanded its power supply with models of different segments. Currently, the range includes electric vehicles for both BMW and MINI, while the technology has also evolved considerably.

The vehicle that marked the milestone of two million was a BMW i5 M60 xDrive, produced at the plant in Dingolfing and delivered to a customer in Spain for August 2026.

The journey between the first i3 and i5 which reached this figure represents more than a decade of evolution. But the next chapter might be even more important, because in the Neue Klasse seeks to bring electrification to a much larger scale.

Europe accelerates towards electric vehicles

Europe remains one of the main markets for the strategy-electric BMW. During the first half of 2026, approximately 28% of the sales of BMW Group in the continent corresponded to electric vehicles battery.

The growth recorded during the second quarter confirms further that the availability of newer models can have a direct impact on sales.

In this context, the BMW iX3 is working as one of the main drivers of the transition. His arrival has increased the presence of BMW in a segment where european consumers increasingly have electrical options.

For BMW, the challenge now will be to keep up this pace while also expanding the family, Neue Klasse and takes their new technology to more models and markets.

What is the meaning of this growth to Mexico?

Although the figures announced by BMW correspond to the performance of global and european developments, it is interesting to markets such as Mexico.

The electrification of BMW does not only depend on a specific model. The arrival of Neue Klasse represents a global strategy that can eventually influence in the offer that the brand develops for different regions.

Mexico is already part of the strategy of electrification of BMW Group and the growth of models like the BMW iX3 allows you to anticipate how it might evolve the range in the next few years.

However, it will still be necessary to know what models, versions, and configurations of Neue Klasse will be available specifically for the mexican market and at what time.

For now, the most important thing is that BMW is demonstrating that its electric vehicles may gain space within the range without leaving the premium positioning that characterizes the company.

The next million could get you there faster

The data of two million electric vehicles delivered is much more than a historical figure. It also shows the speed with which it is changing the strategy of BMW.

The company needed since the end of 2013 to August of 2026 to reach the first two million all-electric vehicles. Now, with a much wider range, greater technological infrastructure and the arrival of the Neue Klasse, the next million could be achieved in a period considerably lower.

The BMW iX3 is already showing a strong response to european customers, while the new BMW i3 starts its production in Munich. Both models represent just the beginning of a new generation.

BMW Group has for more than 50 years developing solutions related to electric mobility, but the stage that begins with Neue Klasse could be the most important up to now.

For consumers, this means that the electric vehicles will no longer be an alternative isolated within the range to progressively become a key part of the offerings from BMW. And for markets such as Mexico, the progress of this new generation will be one of the stories that need to be followed closely.

Because if the first two million represent everything that BMW has built so far in the field of electromobility, Neue Klasse pointing directly toward the next million.
