F31 Touring sales in the US are about 1-2% of European sales.
The X1 sells in much higher quantity than the F31 3er Touring.
The truth is wagon sales in North America are almost extinct. North American customers want the SUV not the wagon that is understanding what the customer wants.

The new BMW X1 will be offered to the US Market as xDrive only , it arrives in the first half of 2016 in which it will offer my space and practicality than the current model as well as more up to date technology and more style utilising more of the current X family design language. It will also sire a BMW X2 Sport Activity Coupe as well as the next MINI Countryman and PACEMAN (which will be more X6 like with 5drs.

Just to make the priority shift sound more interesting.
BMW in North America are selling more F34s than F31s.
