History
editThe BMW Group Thailand was founded in 1998 as a subsidiary of BMW AG and consists of three companies: BMW (Thailand) Co., Ltd. for Sales, BMW Manufacturing (Thailand) Co., Ltd. for the production and BMW Leasing (Thailand) Co., Ltd. for financial services.[1]
The work was started in May 2000 with the production of BMW 3 Series. In October 2002, the long version of the 7 Series was added. A little later, production of the 5 Series started in April 2004.[2] In 2005, the 3 Series was then replaced by the fifth generation. In January 2006, the BMW X3 was joined by the fourth model. There were new generation changes in January 2010 in the 5 Series as in August of the same year in the 7 Series. In the same year, the X1 was introduced as the 5th model in Thailand. A year later, the X3 followed.[3]
