YOUCAR | MINI Countryman Electric (2024) PRODUCTION LINE @YouCarTV | Uploaded 6 months ago | Updated 5 days ago
2024 MINI Countryman Electric Production Line
To enable production of up to 350,000 units a year 100,000 more than previously BMW Plant Leipzig has been continuously upgraded since 2018, with extensive additions and upgrades to the bodyshop, paintshop, assembly and logistics. Our cars and components are very much in demand. In recent years the BMW Group has invested around 1.6 billion euros in the Leipzig site to produce additional vehicles and electric components, and now were increasing vehicle volumes too which is great news for our plant, said Petra Peterhnsel, Plant Director.
The main driver behind the volume increase is the MINI Countryman. During the course of 2024, output will rise to almost 500 units a day on top of the 800 or so BMW vehicles the plant is producing. Whats more, thanks to its flexibleproduction system, Plant Leipzig is in a position to respond quickly to customer demand, for example by increasing the share of fully electric vehicles.
Flexible assembly structures also meant the MINI Countryman Electric could be integrated seamlessly into production. The situation is similar with the different drive units, which are all produced on one and the same line in aggregate assembly and prepared for whats known as marriage with the body. The e-drives, transmissions and control electronics (collectively known as the highly integrated electric drive topology, or HEAT) for the two all-electric models are connected directly in the plant. A new production line was required only for the control electronics.
