Description
(AWP Alliance News) - BMW upgraded its Regensburg plant with a new energy-module pre-assembly line to prepare for series production of its next-generation "Neue Klasse" vehicles in the second half of the decade. The site used a three-week shutdown from Aug. 8 to Aug. 30, 2026 to carry out several hundred infrastructure and production-line modifications.
The new line integrates high-voltage batteries with vehicle bodies at the start of final assembly, supported by a new adjacent high-bay warehouse sized for one day of output. Regensburg currently builds the BMW X1 and BMW X2, with more than 1,400 vehicles produced per day.
