BMW’s South Carolina Factory May Get Fourth Model, Possibly 3-Series
BMW is considering adding a fourth model to its Spartanburg, South Carolina factory in order to further compete with U.S. luxury market leaders Lexus and Mercedes-Benz.

The introduction of a fourth model would help reduce BMW's exposure to foreign currency, which presently tops US$14 billion.
