The first BMW 325I produced in China went on sale across the country on Saturday.

Priced at 473,850 yuan (41,000 US dollars), the vehicle is 200, 000 yuan cheaper than its imported counterpart.

The BMW 325I shares almost same design and accessories as imported versions, except for the control panel, gear shift, steering wheel and tires.

The car was manufactured in plants of Brilliance China Automotive Holding Limited in Shenyang, northeast China's Liaoning Province. The BMW Group and the Brilliance signed an agreement for the production and sale of the BMW 3 series in March this year.
