Car Talk / BMW Sold More Luxury Cars Than Mercedes In U.S. For First Time Since 2015 by obafemee80(m): 3:47pm On Jan 09, 2020 |
BMW outsold Mercedes-Benz in the U.S. for the first time in four years after blowing out its German rival in the final month of 2019. BMW sales totaled 35,746 vehicles in December 2019, an increase of 4% over the 34,357 vehicles sold in December 2018. For the full year 2019, BMW sold a total 324,826 units, an increase of 4.4 percent over 2018 sales, to finish the year ahead of Mercedes by 8,732 units. The massive new X7 SUV was BMW’s major contribution to the sales growth in 2019. The three-row, which has been criticed for his massive kidney grille, starts at $73,900. US-built BMW X3, X5, as well as the all-new seventh-generation 3 Series also boosted BMW sales in 2019. Commenting on the results, Bernhard Kuhnt, president and CEO, BMW of North America, said : “BMW currently has the youngest and most exciting product portfolio in the segment. We are very pleased with our results in 2019 and wish to thank both our customers and dealers for their tremendous support.” In comparison, Mercedes posted a total 316,094 luxury vehicles sold in 2019. This figure is just 135 units more than the total sold in 2018. The GLC-Class was the Mercedes-Benz’s best-selling model with 73,650 units sold (up 5.6 percent). Daimler’s Mercedes sales was crippled by supplier bottlenecks at its lone U.S. car-assembly plant in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. But there may be an asterisk on BMW’s victory over Daimler’s Mercedes-Benz. Rolls-Royce motors’ parent is currently being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission for potentially inflating its sales figures a bit. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) confirmed last month that it is investigating BMW’s sales-reporting practices. BMW finally dethrones its ach-rival Mercedes as the highest seller of luxury cars in the US.

Turkish president has vowed to deal with all efforts to stop it from producing its own car. “They managed to hinder the production of Devrim (Turkey’s first homegrown car). But they will not be able to hinder (the production of) this automobile,” Turkey’s Automobile Joint Venture Group (TOGG) plans to make five electric car models over the next 15 years. A planned factory in Bursa is will produce up to 175,000 of the SUV and sedan units per year by 2022. Turkish government will provide land for the production facility.

A white Bugatti Chiron Hypercar was recently spotted driving into the Defence headquarters in central Harare, Zimbabwe. The limited-edition Bugatti Chiron, which costs a whopping US$3.3 million (₦1.2 billion), turned heads as it drives in convoy of a white Mercedes-AMG G63 into the Defence headquarters. The identity of the owner and the purpose of the visit to the Defence House remains unknown. But it will be seen as the latest display of opulence by politically-connected elites in an impoverished nation. Before now, only two Bugattis, owned by tycoons Frank Buyanga and Zunaid Moti – a South African, where registered in the country. Both left-hand drive cars were later shipped to South Africa because it (SA) does not register left-hand drive cars. One of them is a $3.5m Mansory Bugatti Veyron Vivere Diamond Edition (pictured above) that was spotted last year at the Robert Mugabe International Airport. Bugatti Chiron The successor to the Bugatti Veyron made its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show on 1 March 2016. Powered by a 8.0-litre quad-turbocharged W16 engine that makes a whopping 1500 Horsepower and 1600Nm of torque. The Chiron can do the 0-100kmph run in just 2.3 seconds and a top speed of 261 mph. Since the unveiling, Bugatti has revealed different variants of the supercar. These includes the Chiron Sports, the Divo, and the world’s most expensive new car, the one-off La Voiture Noire. Bugatti plans to limit the total number of Chirons built, including the variants, to 500 cars. So far, over 300 have already been sold. https://autojosh.com/3-3-million-bugatti-chiron-hypercar-turned-heads-at-defence-headquarters/ 8 Likes 3 Shares |

A Russian vlogger has shown his displeasure with German automaker Mercedes by dropping and destroying his Mercedes-AMG G63 from helicopter. He airlifted the SUV into the Karelian sky and dropped it to the ground from almost 1,000 feet. The one-time high-riding and iconic SUV was smashed in a matter of seconds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRMUKgpwyWk In a shared video, the vlogger, Igor Moroz, who specializes in pranks, plays an enraged owner of a Mercedes-AMG G63. According to Moroz, the G-Wagon has been a pain in the neck ever since he bought it in 2018 for 16.8 million rubles. The SUV needed repairs every month and the dealer has refused to repair some of the faults under warranty. But Russian medias thinks they know the true story. According to them, Moroz and a friend fought for a contract, with the loser agreeing to drop his G-Wagon from the sky. Because this stunt won’t be allowed in Russia, Moroz hired the helicopter from an airport in Petrozavodsk for 250,000 rubles (approximately $4,000). The Russian transport police are currently investigating the incident. They want more facts as to why the Mercedes-AMG G63 off-road vehicle was dumped from the sky. Whether it’s a stunt, to promote his Channel, or because of betting, would you destroy your G63 that cost ₦120m in Nigeria? https://autojosh.com/disappointed-blogger-destroys-his-n120-million-mercedes-amg-g63-suv-by-dropping-it-from-helicopter/ 19 Likes 4 Shares |

Last week Saturday in Saudi Arabia, Andy Ruiz jr, nicknamed ‘The Destroyer’, tried desperately to carry his 20 stone frame around the ring during his defeat to Anthony Joshua. The Mexican champion, who knocked AJ down four times in New York six months ago, has admitted he ‘ate everything’ and did not train as hard as he could. While Speaking to TMZ Sports, Ruiz explained further on his poor performance. “I think I ate everything… EVERYTHING… that’s why I gained so much weight. Ruiz wants a third fight. He insists he will train properly if given another shot at Joshua. He added: “For the third fight, I’m going to give it all I got! I want those belts back!” After dethroning Britain’s Anthony Joshua in June, Ruiz and his wife showcased two of his four belts atop a borrowed Rolls-Royce to over one-third of the town’s 17500 population. Andy Ruiz, who earned himself £6.5m (₦2.9 billion) from the famous fight with AJ, also revealed the first thing he bought with the money. “First of all I bought a car for my mum,” He also paid $1m cash for a new home and bought his dad a new truck.

Andy Ruiz Jr’s father wasn’t happy when he bought the luxury white Rolls-Royce Wraith. Ruiz Sr said, “I told him ‘Andy, this is your last car, don’t buy any more,'” His fathers advice on car purchases did not stick as he recently bought a $100,000 Mercedes G550 SUV. As cameras filmed him pulling on to his driveway, Andy Ruiz simply said with a smile, “another one”. Earlier this month, Ruiz took an order on a Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV. The high-riding SUV has a price tag of $325,000 (MSRP). https://autojosh.com/andy-ruiz-jr-splashed-1million-on-luxury-cars-during-his-6-month-reign-as-world-heavyweight-boxing-champion/ 22 Likes 6 Shares |
