BMW\u2019s production has expanded a lot in the late 20th<\/sup> century. For decades, BMW cars were manufactured only in Germany \u2013 formerly, Eisenach, and later Munich and Dingolfing. But today, BMW manufactures vehicles in fifteen different countries, using a network of 31 production sites. Each of these plants produce unique vehicles for different markets.<\/p>\n

Knowing where a certain model is manufactured helps give you a better idea when you try to track a new BMW you\u2019ve ordered.<\/a> But it\u2019s also a neat bit of history for you as an owner. And of course, any real enthusiast would want to know where some of the best driving cars in the world come from.<\/p>\n

Where BMW SAVs are Manufactured<\/strong><\/h2>\n

BMW\u2019s SAV lineup now includes a huge stable of models, ranging from the compact X1 to the luxurious X7. Almost all BMW SAVs area produced in Spartanburg, South Carolina in the United States. The major exceptions are the X1 and X2, coming from Regensberg, Germany. And those exceptions also <\/em>have an exception, since both have Chinese domestic market versions produced at Plant Tiexi in Shenyang.<\/p>\n

Though initially not planned for global sales, recent supply chain issues have also forced BMW to export South-African manufactured X3s into different markets. Otherwise, the X3 and X4 are both exclusively produced in Spartanburg. Some markets have slightly different production variances \u2013 such as crash safety or emissions standards \u2013 and see in-market manufacturing and distribution. A few examples include Egypt, Thailand, and Russia.<\/p>\n

The X5 is just like the X3 in the sense that it is primarily manufactured for the global market in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Also like the X3, there are several market-specific versions produced in their respective countries. Same story with the X6, but available in fewer markets. Most recently (beginning in 2018), the X7 has joined the lineup and is also manufactured almost exclusively in South Carolina.<\/p>\n
