BMW has officially announced the pricing for its 2009 models.

Due to a rise in raw materials costs and the horrible dollar, BMW is raising the price of its vehicles by 2.1 percent on average across its model range.

The 2009 BMWs will start to arrive in dealerships in October and pricing has not been released for the Z4 Roadster and Coupe, since 2008 is the last year of production for those two vehicles (don’t worry BMW is working on a new Z4).

BMW Announces 2009 Model Year Pricing

Woodcliff Lake, NJ – August 25, 2008… BMW of North America, LLC today announced a price increase of 2.1 percent on average across its model range of 2009 BMW brand vehicles.
The modest price adjustment is driven mainly by continually rising raw materials costs and ongoing exchange rate pressure.

“The significant structural and economic changes in the marketplace are prompting all automakers to further refine actions to respond to these pressures,” said Jim O’Donnell, President of BMW of North America, LLC. “At BMW, we’re responding with a number of internal efficiency improvements to offset our increased costs so that we can keep this price increase modest.”

Model year 2009 vehicles are due to arrive at dealerships in October. Minor price adjustments will also be made to selected options/packages. There is no 2009 pricing on Z4 Roadsters and Coupes as production concludes at the end of the 2008 model year.
