LUXURY: BMW tops Mercedes for first U.S. luxury title since 2015


Philip Nussel

BLOOMBERG
The BMW brand topped Mercedes-Benz for the 2019 U.S. luxury sales title after posting a 4 percent sales gain in the final month. It was BMW's first annual U.S. luxury win since 2015.

BMW, in a statement Friday, said its crossovers paced the advances for December and the year as a whole. The automaker said it finished the year with 324,826 U.S. deliveries, up 4.4 percent.

Mercedes finished second in the 2019 race with 316,094 deliveries, essentially flat with 2018, after earning three straight luxury crowns.The automaker said its luxury sales in December slipped 5.4 percent to 30,294 deliveries.

Toyota's Lexus finished a distant third for the year with sales falling 0.1 percent to 298,114 units. December sales fell 0.6 percent to 35,325.

BMW enjoyed gains across most of its crossover model line while it posted steep declines for many of its sedans. X3 and X5 deliveries were particularly strong for the year, and the X7 crossover generated new sales of 21,574 vehicles for the year.

"We've talked a lot over the course of the past two years about having the right product mix for the market, and we believe that with all of our recent launches, we have just that," BMW's North American CEO Bernhard Kuhnt said in the statement.

"BMW currently has the youngest and most exciting product portfolio in the segment."

But the increases came with a price. TrueCar ALG said average BMW incentives rose 13.2 percent to a $6,024 -- one of the highest marks in the industry. The automaker's average transaction price grew 5.6 percent to $57,083, TrueCar ALG said.

Mercedes parent Daimler held incentives stable across all its model lines at about $6,258, the TrueCar ALG report said.

"Strong demand, combined with increased availability for many of our newest Mercedes models including the A-class, GLB, GLS and GLE propelled us to a successful result in 2019," Nicholas Speeks, CEO of Mercedes-Benz USA, said in a statement. "With more new models to come and an energetic and ambitious dealer network providing first class service, we very much look forward to the new year."

Mercedes-Benz said its volume leaders in December included the GLC, GLE and C-class model lines.

The luxury results factor out BMW's Mini brand along with Mercedes Sprinter vans, which are not counted as luxury vehicles. Tesla's results also are not included because the automaker does not break out U.S. sales from its overall global sales report.

My comment about real BMW sales was directed back at the lawsuit being filed against them for padding sales.

You are correct. I lumped the X1 and X2 with the UX and I lumped the X3 and X4 with the NX.
