Commenting on the milestone, Dr Jochen Stallkamp, managing director, BMW Plant Chennai, said, “It is with great pride that we are rolling out the 50,000th car locally produced at BMW Plant Chennai. Each and every BMW that is locally produced is of the same international standards as anywhere else in the world and brings a smile on the faces of our customers. Highly skilled employees, advanced manufacturing processes along with state-of-the-art machinery and technology provide all the necessary ingredients to achieve these tough standards.
We are proud of this achievement and look forward to many such milestones in the future.” BMW Plant Chennai started operations on March 29, 2007.

At present, they comprise the 1 Series, 3 Series, 3 Series Gran Turismo, 5 Series, 7 Series, X1, X3 and the X5. -
