Largest BMW plant will expand this year

BMW's factory in Spartanburg, S.C., is the brand's biggest plant in the world, and it will become even larger when a $1 billion expansion is completed this year, bringing annual capacity to 450,000 vehicles.

Last year, it built a record 400,904 vehicles -- topping that of any of its factories in Germany, BMW says. More than 280,000 crossovers made in Spartanburg were exported.
