Electric Mini to be built in Oxford - BBC News

The electric bit - the drivetrain, which includes the motor, gearbox and battery pack - will be assembled in Germany, and fixed to the rest of the car in the factory. BMW currently makes electric motors and batteries for all of its electric cars at two factories in Germany, at Dingolfing and Landshut. BMW has said that it has many choices about where to build the vehicle, including at a plant functioned by VDL Nedcar in Born, Netherlands, where a plug-in hybrid version of the Mini is already being in built, or a plant in Regensburg, Germany.
