Starting about 1:54: "Brand new models" ... "2021 (Dr. Koch grins)

Karl-Friedrich Koch, vice-president of production control, logistics at BMW Group Mexico talks to Christopher Ludwig about the ramp up in production at the carmaker’s plant in San Luis Potosí and how exports will now be aimed at 30 markets as opposed to just three. BMW is doubling capacity at the plant and adding rail to ship vehicles to the US and Canada. It is also addressing the increasing complexity of inbound parts supply for additional models with more variation that will be made for multiple global markets.
