BMW Plant Manufacturing : 2019-20













The BMW Group has fourteen of its own plants as well as two contract ones and some unspecified partner arrangements. The non-BMW facilities supply 8.4% of total production. For 2020, the total of 2.256 million was -12% compared to the previous 12 months.

The four plants in Germany produce 34.4% of the total (-22%), China's two 26.6% (+12%), USA 16% (-12%) and the UK 8% (-21%) and others 6.6% (+8%). China did well as did Mexico, which has only been operational for two years. 


To take things on a different tangent, sales were 2.325 million, with Asia moving into the top spot with a +6% increase and 42.4% share. That is the first time that it has passed the 40% mark. Europe fell below a 40% slice of the total for the first time so a year of two notable milestones. 


As for electrification, BMW has now released figures for a second year for PHEVs (plug-in hybrids) and BEVs (battery electric vehicles). Both produced improved volume, with the PHEVs doing slightly better.
