BMW AG (BMW.XE) said Monday that it is investing 400 million

location.
"With the launch of the BMW iNext in 2021, Plant Dingolfing will
be capable of producing the right mix of fully-electric vehicles,
plug-in hybrids and models with combustion engines to suit demand
on a single assembly line," the company said.
