According to foreign media reports, BMW has previously promised that its upcoming “Neue Klasse” electric vehicle will have longer cruising range, faster charging speeds and higher efficiency.
Before making its debut next year, BMW’s first batch of new-generation electric vehicles have been rolled off the production line at its Hungarian factory.
BMW’s new generation electric vehicle platform is “the largest investment in the company’s history.
” Supported by the new platform, BMW claims that the upcoming electric vehicle will “increase cruising range by 30%, increase charging speed by 30%, and increase overall vehicle efficiency by 25%.
” Before its official debut next year, BMW’s first batch of new generation models are now officially rolled off the production line.
BMW announced on November 20 that it had produced its first test models at its Debrecen factory in Hungary.

“, BMW is currently preparing for mass production starting at the end of 2025.
As production expands, materials and auto parts are being shipped to the Debrecen factory.
In the next few months, BMW employees will receive “intensive training” on machines and processes to prepare for smooth production.
BMW has adopted a new design theme that will be used in upcoming models.
Adrian van Hooydonk, head of design at BMW Group, said the new generation of electric vehicles is “very forward-looking, as if we have leapfrogged a generation.
” New elements such as the shark nose on the front make BMW’s next-generation electric vehicle significantly different from the existing electric vehicle series.
In addition, the new generation models will also be equipped with a new generation BMW iDrive system and a panoramic 3D head-up display.
BMW’s first new generation model will be a crossover SUV, and the company is expected to launch five more models by 2028.
