BMW was an early pioneer of mass-market electric vehicles.
Take the i3, audacious in design and popular over the 11 years of its manufacture, selling a quarter of a million units. Now, BMW is hoping to become a leader in electrification again with its Neue Klasse generation. However, it won’t be making these new EVs in the U.S. They will be manufactured in Mexico. With the risks of trade wars on the horizon, this could be a smart move.
