Historic moment! Tesla surpassed BMW to become the nation's top luxury brand sales champion in January

With the rise of new energy vehicles, Tesla's sales in the United States have grown significantly in recent years. Although Tesla's U.S. registration volume of 342412 vehicles in 2021 is slightly lower than BMW's 347453 vehicles, ranking second in the sales list of luxury brands in the United States, its 71% year-on-year growth rate is far more than BMW's 24%, so some agencies estimate that Tesla's sales in the United States in 2022 will achieve a comprehensive reversal of BMW. Recently, some research institutions said that Tesla's sales in the United States in January have surpassed BMW and become the champion of the national luxury brand sales list in the United States that month.

Tesla Model Y

According to the statistics of information services company Experian, Tesla sales registrations in the United States in January 2022 increased by 49% from the same period last year to 37,162 vehicles. By comparison, BMW grew by only 8.2 percent to 30,563 units. This also allowed it to surpass BMW to become the highest-selling luxury brand car company in the United States in January. Considering that Tesla only sells all-electric vehicles, while BMW's total sales are the same as other brands, in addition to pure electric models, it also includes fuel vehicles and hybrid models. So Tesla's sales performance is particularly impressive.

In contrast, for new energy vehicles, the number of pure electric vehicles registered in the United States in January increased by 62% compared with the same period last year.
