[Rolf]

Wow what happened to BMW in October in Germany it was a massive 6000 units less sold than Mercedes!!!

What a surprise for the electric EQC it is the oldest electric car in Merc lineup and still sold 524 units and more than the later models.

"BMW figures for October 2022 cannot be explained conclusively"

"The race in Germany is pretty close, depending on how you count it, there is currently a relatively clear leader around the world: After three out of four quarters, core brand BMW has gained a lead of more than 30,000 units over Mercedes".

Oktober 2022: BMW weiter ohne Schwung in Deutschland

Auch zum Auftakt des vierten Quartals kann BMW in Deutschland offenbar nicht mit dem gleichen Schwung verkaufen wie die direkten Wettbewerber Audi und

In an image where the two brands sell 1.5 million, the figure of 30 thousand is not a clear difference.

Model 3 and Y is expected but I was surprised to see Model S outselling German rivals with a design that is 10 years old.

Imagine being the buyer that paid $33,000 a few days before the price cuts. Probably never buying a Benz again

In the text it indicates that it will provide subsidies to recent buyers, whatever that means.

It does not even give rise to wondering what happened, since there are several things that do not close well in those EQ sedans, they seem like rookie mistakes

Does the launch of the i7 have something to do with this?

Does the launch of the i7 have something to do with this?

I had not thought about it but it may be, it would be the revelation of the mystery of why the i7 was so anticipated in March of this year, compared to the start of sales that was these days

I've seen a tweet , that on AutoTrader there are more than 1000 G wagons.

Is that true? Are the ridiculous markups coming to an end?

October seems to be the first month of the year with positive numbers for BMW ?

"BMW achieved an increase of almost six percent, Mercedes-Benz posted a decline of a good three percent. Opel's mother, Stellantis, sold almost two percent fewer vehicles than in the same period last year. (dpa/mer)"

I said in another thread, the only real objective measure of "luxury" is the premium the market is ready to bear. This is clearly case of the market not bearing the premium.

A great achievement, especially since there more than a means of transportation is an elitist fashion item that is only sold from Cooper up and starts at $49,999 (dollars) (in general), up to 65 up for an "S" and Countryman

Daniel Lescow has been at the helm of luxury brand Maybach at Mercedes since April
When the former sales manager for Smart got the offer, he didn't have to think twice.

I understand, this appointment to lead Maybach of the former "Smart" manager fits well into Mercedes' strategy of selling few cars

So soll Maybach noch mehr glänzen

Seit April leitet Daniel Lescow die Luxusmarke Maybach bei Mercedes. Über eigene Stores und neue Fahrzeuge soll die Marke weltweit wachsen.

We have to see how the EQE and EQS SUV's perform as well as the EQE in long term but so far the EQA, EQB and EQS are not selling that well. I think Mercedes styling direction for the EQ models has been its biggest failure.
