Tour of Assembly Plant
Up to 740 premium standard BMW vehicles are produced at the Leipzig plant with the aid of highly qualified employees and innovative production technology. Each BMW automobile is individually produced and tailor-made to the client's wishes and preferences. Several thousand parts in many different colours and sizes and thousands of production stages are necessary before the vehicle is ready to start what is often a long journey to the client.
Every traditional BMW vehicle built in Leipzig passes through the pressing plant, body shop, paint shop and assembly, and the sophisticated logistics system is vital to the whole production system. It takes less than 40 hours to build a BMW in Leipzig including rigorous quality checks.
The production of the BMW i3 began at the plant on 18 September 2013. From 2014, production of the BMW i8 sports car will begin.
This tour will allow Summit participants to take a behind-the-scenes look at the BMW Leipzig Plant, designed by the famous architect Zaha Hadid.
