As a long-time leader in electric vehicles, BMW intends to expand its fleet of EVs with four new models in the coming years. At BMW, they emphasized their full commitment to the production of EV.

“We are fully committed to electric cars wherever the use of battery-electric drive trains makes sense, and it is possible because the conditions are right. By 2023 we will offer our customers at least one BEV option in nearly all our vehicle segments and over the next 10 years we aim to release a total of about 10 million fully electric vehicles onto the market, ”said BMW CEO Oliver Zipse.

The first vehicles to be unveiled are the X1 and Series 7, coming in 2022. So far, there is not enough information about the specifications for these models, only it is known where they will be produced (Regensburg and Dingolfing, Germany).

The Electric Series 5 and Mini Countryman are coming in 2023. The Series 5 will be produced in Dingolfing, while the plant in Leipzig is in charge of the Mini Countryman.

By the end of 2025, BMW hopes that EV will account for 25 percent of total sales. Therefore, for 2025, BMW has prepared a Neue Klasse platform that will be used only for EV, although the platform also supports other powertrains.
