BMW Group Regensburg Plant Prepares for the Future and Inaugurates Body Shop Expansion

The BMW Group Regensburg Plant today inaugurated a new body shop at the factory site 6.12 (Neutraubling) in the presence of Regensburg District Administrator Tanja Schweiger and Neutraubling Mayor Harald Stadler. Plant Manager Armin Ebner: "Our Regensburg products BMW X1 and BMW X2 are in high demand worldwide. In the new production hall in Neutraubling, we currently produce over 120 vehicle bodies per day - thus contributing to meeting the high market demand." Once completed, the bodies manufactured in Neutraubling are transported to the Regensburg vehicle plant, where they are assembled into finished automobiles around the clock in a three-shift operation. A new vehicle leaves the Regensburg assembly line every 57 seconds. Currently, this amounts to over 1,400 vehicles per working day. With an annual production of 342,521 automobiles, the Regensburg Plant was the highest-volume vehicle plant of the BMW Group in Europe in 2024. This was more than 100,000 vehicles above the 2023 annual production (238,301 automobiles). More than a third of the vehicles built in Regensburg in 2024 were electrified, either a plug-in hybrid or a fully electric model. "We manufacture our vehicles for the global market and contribute to the growth of electromobility," emphasized Ebner.
