Given their relationship and close proximity both the next MINI Countryman/PACEMAN and next BMW X1/X2 will probably be manufactured within Europe.
Spartanburg will get the new BMW X4 and X6 they are also expected to be the front runner for the Super luxury BMW X7 but again if BMW consider a Rolls-Royce SAV it could be manufactured in Europe.
As yet no decision has been taken on manufacturing as they are still working on the X7 Design concept.

Oh wow, please don't let the X7 look like that. This looks like it has the F15, a Crosstour, a CR-V, and F10 LCI as grandparents. I hope that this is just the result of the designers going on a bender the night before they created this render!
