Might be the range which isn't too high or the overall market for a smaller crossover SUV...

I'm not sure that the case - I think the more plausible answer is the the EU has strict penalties if carmakers fail CO_2 emission standards, so BMW (and others) need to sell BEVs there or pay fines. And they just can't build enough to also satisfy the US market.
Well, and the fact that it would need to be imported and the range isn't so great for rural America etc.
