🛠️ BODY SHOP – Robotic Body Construction
The production process begins with the construction of the new G50 body structure. Industrial robots position and weld metal components, forming the body-in-white. BMW has introduced a dedicated body-shop production line for the new 3 Series at Plant Dingolfing.
🎨 PAINT SHOP – Automotive Painting Process
The body shell continues through the paint shop, where surface treatment, protective coatings and robotic paint application prepare the vehicle for final assembly.
🔩 FINAL ASSEMBLY – Building the BMW M350 xDrive
The painted body enters the assembly line, where skilled workers and automated systems bring together the interior, electronics, drivetrain, suspension and other components to create the finished BMW 3 Series.
The new BMW M350 xDrive is the M Performance model of the gasoline-powered G50 range. It features a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six engine with 48V mild-hybrid technology, delivering 437 horsepower in U.S. specification and sending power to all four wheels through BMW xDrive.
