BERLIN—BMW has sold its one millionth electric vehicle (EV)—including purely electric and hybrid vehicles—and plans to reach two million sales of purely electric vehicles by 2025, the German carmaker said on Tuesday.

Around 70 percent of EVs sold so far were hybrids, board member Pieter Nota said in a roundtable with journalists, adding that the company believed hybrid models would continue to play an important role in particular for customers without easy access to chargers.
