BMW India would be rolling out their mid-luxury sedan 5 Series by June from its Chennai factory. The company further has plans to bring their sport utility vehicles (SUV) X3 and X5 through the import route later this year.

BMW has also said that they have seen impressive sales figures in India and they are now hiking its sales target to 1,200 units from the earlier 1,000 units for the current calendar year.

Peter Knorschnabl, president, BMW India said in a statement on the Indian market: “There has been terrific response to our products and the 5 Series is expected to propel it further. Our SUVs, which are currently undergoing homologation process at the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI), Pune would be launched in next few months and help us to garner larger market share in the luxury car market.”

BMW is expected to price the upcoming 5-Series in the range of Rs 37 to 42 lakh. The company is also working hard on expanding their presence in the Indian market by expanding their sales network by appointing 12 dealers across the country.
