BMW have been making cars for decades and got off to a strong electric start with the i3 and i8, but since then they’ve been a little quiet. Until now. Elliot visits the BMW Brilliance factory in Shenyang, China, to see the manufacturing process of their new iX3 electric car. This will be a significant car for BMW, and the UK version currently being produced in this factory will arrive in a few months when we’ll review it in full. BMW clearly have a strong electric ambition and it’s particularly interesting to see a legacy automakers production process of EVs alongside their ICE counterparts, in a factory that is powered 100% by renewable energy. Could the iX3 be the car to take BMW to the next electric level?
