2011 BMW X1 sales top 64,000 since model launch
Looking for the 2011 BMW X1 to hit U.S. showrooms? Well, you’d be glad to know that the model is selling pretty well in other regions of the world. When the BMW X1 made its debut at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show, critics were a bit skeptical about the model since it is the first car in what will become the premium small SUV segment.
The X1 has proven the critics wrong and has sold 55,550 units through the first 7 months of 2010. Since its market launch in late-October 2009, BMW has sold over 64,049 units of the 2011 X1.
