BMW group sales increase slightly in Q2 on growing demand in Europe

German carmaker BMW reported a slight increase in second-quarter deliveries on Thursday, as growing demand in Europe offset a slump in China.

In the April-to-June period, deliveries of BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce vehicles increased by 0.4% year on year to 621,271 units, the company said.

BMW & MINI sales rose by 10.1% in Europe and by 1.4% in the United States, while sales in China fell by 13.7% compared to the same quarter last year, the carmaker said.
