I'm guessing the 520d would be with the LCI launch? Is that all M2 and 2 series made globally? Or just ones bound for the Americas? It would seem weird to ship 220d or whatever models from Mexico back to Europe.

This ... "It's possible Spartanburg will not be the primary production plant for their successors [X3/X4]"
ynguldyn I know that your only reporting, but with BMW NA portfolio sales of 60% X vehicles, maybe production shifts to South Africa for the ex NA market to make room for 4 series and 5 series production in Spartanburg to hedge against the threat EU tariffs? If so, the ED program would be history.

@ynguldyn Have you heard anything regarding the X3M/X4M SOP? I don't see them on your list (probably because they are now official). The posted order guides in their respective thread shows SOP as this month however, another user heard from some BMW execs that SOP was delayed.

Yes, it will fill the void left by the recently departed 640i.
US product strategy: 1/2 family of products - B48 only (coupe excepted) 3/4 family of products - B48/B58/S58 5/6 family of products - B48/B58/N63/S63 (no B48 in SAVs) 7/8 family of products - B58/N63/S63 (N74 dies with the G12) And before someone asks if there will be an M7 next generation - I have no idea. But they really should, right? |

They should also include the double rear intakes for the radiator as well, I'd love to see how people would react to that! |

Shame that BMW is leaving the wagon market in the US for Audi RS6 and Mercedes E63 to conquer.
