BMW Group Implements Automated Driving Technology in Production Facilities
BMW Group's Automated Driving In-Plant technology has moved into series operation at its Dingolfing facility, enhancing production efficiency. Following successful pilots since 2022, this system will expand to Leipzig and other plants, aiming for 90% automation in vehicle movements.

The BMW Group has launched the Automated Driving In-Plant (AFW) technology at its Dingolfing plant, following pilot tests since 2022. This system facilitates autonomous driving for new BMW and Mini vehicles over designated routes, utilizing the largest LIDAR infrastructure in Europe.
Future implementations are planned for Leipzig, Regensburg, Oxford, and Debrecen by 2025. AFW aims for high levels of automation, with BMW targeting millions of test kilometers within its production network over the next decade. This advancement positions BMW as a leader in production innovation, with potential impacts on logistics and operational efficiency across its facilities.
