Where is the BMW X1 made?
I’m thinking of springing for a BMW X1 soon, and I’ve been curious about its production. Where is the BMW X1 manufactured?
Shannon Fitzgerald · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
Learning about your BMW’s production history can actually be quite fascinating. Though the current BMW X1 is often made, or assembled, in the Regensburg, Germany production facility, North American drivers will typically receive models made in the United States.
Here’s where some major BMW production facilities are located, and which markets they usually produce for:
- Greer, South Carolina (USA): produces X-series models for the American market (this is the largest BMW production facility in existence)
- Shenyang, China: produces 3 series and 5 series models, usually for the Chinese market
- Born, Netherlands: produces X1 models for the European market
- Regensburg, Germany: produces X1 and X2 models for the European market
- Rosslyn, South Africa: produces 3 series and BMW Motorsport engines for the South African market
If you’re curious, you can also take a look at the first two numbers of your BMW’s VIN number to decode where it was assembled and what country manufactured it. In the United States, you’ll usually see either a W or 5 in the first digit (standing for Germany or the U.S.), and a B or U/Y in the second digit (standing for Germany or the U.S.).
Once you back that new BMW into your garage, you’ll want to make sure it’s covered with quality car insurance. With
