During the BMW Group Annual Conference 2023, the automaker revealed a bunch of information about its future EV range. Besides teasing the i5 Sedan ahead of its debut later this year and confirming the i5 Touring for 2024, BMW said that the iX2 SUV will debut by the end of 2023. Furthermore, the Bavarian company announced it will unveil at least 6 production models based on the hotly-anticipated Neue Klasse architecture between 2025 and 2027.

Starting with the iX2, BMW was coy on details but we expect it to be the zero-emission equivalent of the next-gen X2, something that we have already seen in spy shots. BMW’s smallest coupe-SUV will most likely share its underpinnings with the iX1 including the dual electric motors and the 64.7 kWh battery. It will however combine them with sportier looks, courtesy of a sloping roofline leading to a redesigned tail.

As for the Neue Klasse EV-dedicated architecture that will eventually underpin BMW’s entire portfolio, the automaker confirmed 6 debuts within 24 months between 2025 and 2027. The first two models will be a sedan and an SUV with a similar footprint to the current 3-Series and a new styling language likely previewed by the BMW i Vision Dee concept earlier this year. The new platform will bring high-performance electric drivetrains and batteries with significantly improved efficiency, alongside a new UX/UI concept and more focus on sustainability.

Production of the first Neue Klasse model will commence in the second half of 2025 at the Debrecen plant in Hungary. In 2026, they will also be manufactured in BMW’s main factory in Munich, Germany which will be upgraded accordingly. In 2027, “standard production” of the Neue Klasse EVs will start at the Plant San Luis Potosi in Mexico, following an €800 million ($846 million) investment. Besides the aforementioned locations, the company said they will soon announce more factories for EV production.

BMW‘s electric range currently comprises around a dozen models representing a 15% EV share. By 2024, 20% of new BMWs will be fully electric, with the percentage increasing to 25% in 2025 and 33% in 2026. More details about the Neue Klasse models and their new tech features will be announced at the IAA Mobility Show in Munich this September.
