In Shenyang, China, the first fully electric BMW iX3 rolled off the assembly line at the BMW Brilliance Automotive (BBA) joint venture. The workforce at BBA's Dadong plant in Shenyang celebrated the successful start of production on September 29, 2020.
In addition to intelligent production and state-of-the-art technologies, the BBA production site in Shenyang also stands for its comprehensive quality management system. A special "zero-defect concept" ensures that the high global market requirements for electromobility are met.
To ensure the vehicle safety of the BMW iX3, BBA carries out thorough tests from the battery to the finished vehicle. 128 mechanical tests and 994 software function checks ensure the high quality of the high-voltage battery over its entire life cycle. In 140 function tests, the vehicle is subjected to a thorough examination during acceleration, in special road conditions and on rocky roads. This makes the BMW iX3 suitable for all road conditions and meets the highest requirements in a wide variety of driving conditions.
