Speaking about reaching the two millionth unit production milestone, Christoph Schroder, plant manager at Dingolfing, has said that the BMW 7-Series is the automaker's top model. “In it, we combine progressive luxury and the latest technologies. Like no other model, it stands for automotive innovations and now also for our electric offensive in the luxury segment. What makes me particularly proud is that we have been producing it here since it was introduced 45 years ago," he added. Interestingly, this same plant also manufactures models like 4-Series, 5-Series, 6-Series, 8-Series, and iX.
