The BMW announced only the high goals of the EV as Audi, Porsche, Mercedes, Volvo, and others, only a few years ago, announced the back track in recent months. Munich never vowed to go fully in a fixed time frame, rather than prefer to give consumers the freedom of choice. Its projects will be equally distributed between gas and electric cars by 2030, but Bavaria has not banned the future of combustion.
The company maintains its desire to give artificial power trains to EV instead of customizing it, as the European Union is planning 2035. In an interview while interviewing Australian Magazine CarricpesChief Technology Officer Jo Cham Post argued that he should eventually come to buyers, not the European Union: “Finally, the customer decides.”
Provided that the ban may be implemented in a short time in nine years, the board members are concerned that it may be widespread pressure.
“If the European Commission is going to say that they have a plan to cut the combustion engine in 2035, they are not asking consumers and how the (EV charging) infrastructure is coming, how are energy prices and everything there. It is stupid to do so. And you can kill an industry like this. ‘

Their concerns are the echoes of Mercedes CEO Ola Clenis, who recently warned that the European car industry is “moving at full pace against the wall” and that if the European Union is not revised, “fall” may also be. The statement came shortly after the confession of the boss of Stuttgart that the company had to “improve the course” to keep combustion engines longer than the initial plan. Mercedes continues to invest in traditional power trains, and along the way there is a new V-8 from AMG.
But how are electric cars really in Europe? According to the latest data from the European Automobile Manufacturers Association, the total sale in EV in EV during the first eight months of the year was 15.6 % of the total sales. The part, including the UK and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) countries comprising Iceland, Lichtonstein, Norway, and Switzerland, has increased to 17.4 percent.
It is just a long journey before the car makers put everyone behind the EV wheels, which has strongly criticized the Post’s EU plan. The BMW continues to sell its Rolls Royal brand to V -12, as well as three, four, six, and eight cylinders. Even some third parties such as Toyota, Land Rover, and Ineos are provided to automotive. If the rumors are correct, Archive Mercedes is buying four cylinders from Munich soon.
“M” in BMW means “Motoron” (German for “engine”), and the brand with the round is not ready to give up it. Despite getting the speed of BMW’s EV lineup, combustion is a very profitable business. If the ban is faced, this will reduce the company’s balance sheet widely in view of the importance of the European market.
In combination with mini, the group sold about 500,000 cars on the continent in the first half of the year. It is far ahead of Asia (438,294) and the United States (193,091). China is its largest market, selling 317,862 units in June.
The European Union is on the rise to re -considering the 2035 ban by automated makers, with future reviews likely it has been decided whether the combustion engine is executed. As recently march, the European Union confirmed its position, but the ban has not yet been stoned. BMW and other Legacy Car makers are urging Brussels to change the course. If not, the industry has warned that ban can cause destruction and stimulate large -scale job losses throughout the sector.
