iFACTORY EXPERIENCE at the MINI Plant Oxford
In your 100-minute tour, you will gain fascinating insights into the body shop and the final assembly. Starting in the body shop, you will see how our associates and more than 1,200 robots produce the basic framework of the MINI starting with steel sheets. Continuing on to the final assembly hall, you will witness first-hand as the MINI takes shape – from the installation of the cockpit through the fitting of the power units and to validation – where the car is put through its paces.
The Family Tour takes families with children and teenagers on a journey into the world of automotive production. In around 100 minutes, the contents of the Basic Tour are conveyed in an age-appropriate way. Discover how a MINI is created from thousands of individual parts in the body shop and in the final assembly. If you have any questions, please contact our team: info@visit-bmwgroup.com.
