This exclusivity thing is getting out of hand. Every manufacturer is doing it now with different variants in different regions. It makes collecting parts and maintaining vehicles across borders a real pain. I’d prefer if BMW stuck to a more universal design philosophy.
Has anyone considered that buyers might be waiting for the next generation of models? Carmakers are transitioning to electric powertrains, and many luxury buyers want to wait and see what the EV options look like before making a purchase decision.
Has anyone reached out to dealers directly to get more detailed information? I’d love to know if this decline is uniform across all luxury brands or if some manufacturers are handling it better than others. The strategy matters.
