The BMW Group is expanding its plant in Leipzig to make it the first location in Germany for the large-scale production of zero-emission electric cars. In the period up to 2013, the company plants to invest around 400 million euros in new buildings and machinery for the production of the MEGACITY VEHICLE (MCV). Around 800 jobs will be created in the process. From this year onwards, the BMW ActiveE, which is based on the BMW 1 Series Coupe, will already roll off the production line at the Leipzig plant. After the Mini E, this vehicle represents the BMW Group’s second step towards putting a zero-emission electric vehicle into series production. Experience gained from these two electric cars will be channeled directly into the series development of the MCV.
