This does make the most sense. The X1 is being made at the over capacity Leipzig plant and the Countryman is outsourced to Magna Steyr in Austria. It would make sense to consolidate them to one factory in Mexico under their new shared platform.

It makes sense for the 3 series to made in Mexico for the US market but I have my doubts since they're doing the modular platform with whole plants being dedicated to one platform.
