1 Since the reporting year 2020, a new definition for workforce size has been applied. To enable better comparability, the value for 2019 was adjusted accordingly (2019 before adjustment: 133,778 employees).
For the timeframe including and prior to 2018, the share of the employees that are no longer reflected in reporting is about 7.5-8 %.
2 The new definition of the term “employee” (see footnote 1) also has an impact on the proportion of women in management positions. For comparative purposes, the 2019 figure has been adjusted accordingly (2019 before adjustment: 17.5 %).

2 EU-27 countries including Norway and Iceland; with effect from 2021, values are calculated on a converted basis in line with WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure). Values from 2017 to 2020 according to New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).
3 This is a preliminary internal calculation with a potential variation of +/– 0.5 g CO2 / km, as official registration figures from the authorities are not available from all EU states. The EU Commission is not expected to publish official figures until November the following year.
4 Flexibilities as defined in the regulatory requirements for 2021 are as follows: eco-innovation with 1.7 g CO2 / km (WLTP).
5 To improve year-on- year comparability, the 2020 NEDC figures were converted to WLTP after adjusting for permissible flexibilities – specifically from 99 g CO2 / km according to NEDC (including 5 g CO2 / km phase-in, 7.5 g CO2 / km supercredits and 2.4 g CO2 / km eco-innovations) to 135 g CO2 / km according to WLTP (excluding flexibilities). In 2020, a phase-in regulation was accepted, as was the recognition of supercredits. As of 2021, these two simplifications no longer apply for the BMW Group.
6 Efficiency ratio calculated on the basis of Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2 emissions (i.e. a market-based method according to GHG Protocol Scope 2 guidance; mainly the use of the VDA emissions factors as well as isolated use of local emissions factors; but excluding climate-changing gases other than carbon dioxide) from vehicle production (BMW Group manufacturing sites incl. joint venture BMW Brilliance Automotive Ltd. and motorcycles, excluding contract manufacturers), as well as BMW Group non-manufacturing sites (e.g. research centre, sales centre, offices) divided by the number of vehicles (excluding motorcycles) produced (BMW Group manufacturing sites incl. joint venture BMW Brilliance Automotive Ltd., excluding contract manufacturers). From 2021, this indicator will include the carbon emissions of all other BMW Group locations in addition to the carbon emissions generated by production. The figures for 2019 (base year) and 2020 have been adjusted accordingly for comparison purposes (2019 before adjustment: 0.30 tons, 2020 before adjustment: 0.23 tons). Figures from 2017 and 2018 are audited with limited assurance.
