(Reuters) - Luxury carmaker BMW has orders for nearly 10,000 of its
i3 electric cars, the first of which were delivered in Germany last week, the company's global sales chief, Ian Robertson, said at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Wednesday.
Robertson also said the
BMW i8 plug-in hybrid sports car due to be introduced in mid-2014 has sold out for its first year of availability. He did not say how many the company will sell in that first year.
