BMW recently unveiled an electric autonomous concept sports activity vehicle, the fourth-generation X5, and the new X7 at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
The 2019 X7 will be the fifth X model produced at the Spartanburg factory, BMW Group’s largest manufacturing facility worldwide. “This is a brand new model from the ground up and we are excited about the opportunity it brings,” BMW Manufacturing Co. spokesman Steve Wilson said. “We are allowing pre-orders for the X7.” So far, BMW has invested $8 billion dollars in Spartanburg.
In September, the four-millionth vehicle was produced at the Spartanburg plant. The BMW Group is currently investing in its Spartanburg plant on a substantial scale, preparing the plant for future generations of BMW X models and enlarging the local workforce from a current figure of around 10,000 employees to 11,000 employees by 2021.
The 2019 BMW X7 offers standard three row seating for seven with optional Second-row Captain’s Chairs offering a more exclusive seating arrangement for six. Standard two-axle air suspension, 21-inch alloy wheels, and advanced driver assistance systems ensure that the new BMW X7 lives up to expectations of style, driver engagement, passenger comfort, and all-weather and all-terrain capability.
