Overview
- BMW Group says the Warwickshire plant has produced more than 7.6 million engines since 2001 for BMW, Mini and Rolls‑Royce, including units for plug‑in hybrids.
- Current output includes three‑ and four‑cylinder petrol engines, V8s for BMW models, and a hand‑built V12 manufactured exclusively for Rolls‑Royce.
- The facility was retooled in 2022–23 to add V8 and V12 production, reinforcing its role in BMW’s global engine network.
- BMW reports that the large‑displacement engines built at Hams Hall will be upgraded to meet upcoming Euro 7 emissions standards to remain in the lineup.
- Operational updates include a 61% reduction in energy used per engine since the first full year, sourcing all purchased electricity from renewables, and deploying a ‘SpOTTO’ inspection robot.
