BMW Group produced more than one million vehicles at its German plants in 2025, accounting for roughly one in four cars built in the country. The German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) reported that total vehicle production in Germany last year reached 4.15 million.

Milan Nedeljković, BMW Board member responsible for Production, described the milestone as a testament to the competitiveness and innovative strength of German industry. “Producing more than one million vehicles is a strong testament to Germany’s innovative strength. We are systematically leveraging innovation and digitalisation,” he said, adding that policymakers must maintain competitive conditions to support industrial growth.

BMW’s German plants in Dingolfing, Leipzig, Munich, and Regensburg form a core part of the company’s global production network. The BMW iFACTORY concept underpins operations, providing streamlined structures, efficient processes, and maximum flexibility. All plants are capable of producing vehicles with internal combustion engines, plug-in hybrids, and fully-electric drive trains on a single line, allowing BMW to respond swiftly to market fluctuations.

The flexible production model strengthens the company’s resilience and underscores its competitive edge in a rapidly evolving automotive industry.
