As of 6+ years ago, all US built German market bound X vehicles were transported from the Port of Bremerhaven to Werk Dingolfing for a very compressive quality inspection due to quality issues arising from US Manufacturing. This was 1st hand communication from a BMW employee during European Delivery. I highly suspect that BMW has flushed out the manufacturing quality issues.

Are there a significant number of 50e’s being exported to Germany compared to a B47, B48, or B57 engine varriant?
