BMW Group Plant Production : 2024-25

Total production for the entire group was 2,456,500 units, down 2%. Nearly 44% of production was in Germany. 

China dropped three percentage points but still managed to make 600,000 cars in the three plants in that country.

A new production facility in Hungary is producing the new iX3. The contract plant in the Netherlands no longer produces vehicles for BMW. I believe the last cars made there were the MINI hatch and convertible.

BMW MINI Model Deliveries : 2024-25

2025 restored MINI deliveries with an 18% increase registered for the year. The Clubman is no more but the Aceman has covered that vacancy nicely. The new 

5th generation Hatch and new 3rd generation Countryman then ramped up their volumes to provide the increase. 

I thought if MINI wanted a catch tune to add to the Aceman, they could choose Carole King's Jazzman. "Lift me, won't you lift me, above the old routine? Make it nice, play it clean, Aceman" then "Aceman, take my blues away". That's probably why I never worked in advertising.

Rolls Royce Model Deliveries : 2024-25

Rolls Royce passed the 5,000 delivery mark in 2019 and ignoring 2020, has done so ever since. So 5-6,000 seems to be the level the marque is operating at. The 2024 profit was reportedly US$177 million but data on RR profit isn't overly available and may fluctuate for various reasons. 

The Cullinan leads the way with over half of deliveries attributed to the SUV. The electric Spectre had a nice start to its career in 2024 but 2025 was a return to reality. Are you watching JLR? 

The Wraith/Dawn combo ended in 2023, to make way for the Spectre. It wasn't a direct replacemnt though and may struggle to sell in equivalent numbers. Ahh, the electric car future that hasn't delivered as expected.
