BMW iX3 Production Begins at Debrecen – First Neue Klasse Factory | Exclusive Footage [4K]

The BMW Group is entering a new era of sustainable car manufacturing with the groundbreaking start of series production for the all-electric BMW iX3 at its brand-new plant in Debrecen, Hungary. This facility is the first BMW Group car plant to operate entirely on renewable electricity, eliminating fossil fuels and significantly reducing CO₂e emissions.

Designed from the ground up as a BMW iFACTORY, Plant Debrecen combines digital twins, AI-powered quality control, autonomous logistics, and advanced energy recovery systems to create one of the most efficient automotive factories in the world.

Key highlights include:
▪ First Neue Klasse model: the BMW iX3 rolling off the line in October.
▪ High-voltage battery production on site, ensuring short supply chains.
▪ Zero fossil fuels used during normal operation – powered by solar and renewable energy.
▪ Digitalised planning and AI systems streamlining every production stage.
▪ A paint shop that alone cuts 12,000 tonnes of CO₂e annually.

With over 2,000 employees trained globally and innovations patented, Plant Debrecen sets the benchmark for the future of automotive manufacturing. This is more than a new factory – it’s the blueprint for BMW’s sustainable, digital, and flexible production strategy that will shape 40 upcoming BMW models through 2027.
