The precision of robots on the assembly line of the last three series is truly impressive. Take a couple of minutes to observe how machines are produced on the BMW factory assembly line in Munich. Especially since the modern production process is highly automated, and watching the precise work of the machines is truly captivating.
The film starts with the moment when consecutive elements of the car's structure are welded together, and then covered with the body.
The next stage is the paint workshop, where all elements are covered with several layers of paint. Here human intervention is necessary — employees check the quality of the paint layer, looking for any imperfections that will require correction.

The flawlessly painted body moves to the next positions on the production line. In turn, components of the drive system, suspension, or braking system are assembled onto it. Workers then assemble interior elements, lighting, and plastic body parts of the car during the production process.
By the way, the new Triple with the designation G20 is a model that boasts several innovations. They make their debut in the 3 Series and even in BMW as a whole.
These are the first three series where the traditional manual handbrake will not be available — it has been completely replaced by an electric parking brake, activated by a button.
Also, the first BMW model equipped with a personal assistant with whom you can converse, like with Amazon's Alexa or Apple's Siri.
Similar to the new Mercedes A-Class, simply saying «Hello!» to the car is enough, but in this case, it's «Hello, BMW.» The latest three series debut updates to the remote system. However, it does not work automatically like in Tesla.
The owner must download the update to their smartphone, then connect it to the car and install the new software. Of course, this can only be done when the car is stopped. The new BMW 3 Series also boasts the most powerful four-cylinder BMW in the series.
Under the hood, the 330i houses a two-liter turbocharged engine with 255 hp. Here BMW falls behind Mercedes, which has long established, for example, the 381 hp four-cylinder engine in the A45 AMG, and apparently in the latest generation model, it will have over 400 hp. Your move, BMW! Start the production process!
