BMW Group Plant Regensburg has produced 100,000 fully-electric vehicles produced since the start of the year. The milestone vehicle was a BMW iX1. The vehicle, finished in Blue Bay Lagoon metallic, will be shipped to overseas, to the island of La Réunion. The plant has produced this successful premium compact model for customers worldwide since November 2022.

More than a third of the vehicles built at the Regensburg plant this year were electrified—i.e. a plug-in hybrid or an all-electric model. Management says that the plant will produce more than 330,000 vehicles in total this year.

More than 1,400 BMW X1 and BMW X2 models are currently coming off the production line at BMW Group Plant Regensburg every workday. The core BMW X1 model will be produced with all drive train variants: as a combustion-engine vehicle and plug-in hybrid, alongside the fully-electric BMW iX1.

The BMW Group vehicle plant in Regensburg has been in operation since 1986 and is one of more than 30 BMW Group production locations worldwide.
