We have successfully developed the front end in a material mix for the BMW X3 together with BMW in Germany. The challenge here was to consider an ambitious overall concept regarding weight, costs and tolerance requirements. Technically challenging in this concept are the bending and punching of the aluminum profiles and the welding of the galvanised steels. After a successful start in the US, we will also be manufacturing the carry-over parts concept in Shenyang, China, from 2025.
