BMW's head of German Sales, Karsten Engel and Dingolfing Plant Manager Wolfgang Stadler today announced production of the 8th Million BMW produced at the plant and destined for the Piepenbrock Group. The vehicle was accepted in a ceremony with Olaf Piepenbrock to expand his own fleet of over 100 BMWs.
BMW Dingolfing currently produces about 1,400 units per day, which accounts for about two-thirds of the global BMW 5-Series production capacity. The 5-Series has a long tradition tied to the Dingolfing plant, which was the site of production of the first generation 5. As such, the plant is considered one of BMW's best factories and is also home to the BMW 7-Series production line.
