Summary

By providing a range of different models with specific characteristics the BMW E-fleet meets the requirements on urban and long-distance mobility, ecological compatibility and regulatory provisions while keeping the joy of driving that is typical for a BMW. In this way BMW Group assert their leadership in terms of innovative developments and high-performance products. In order to continue the electrification across all vehicle segments still in a very rapid, efficient and sustained way BMW pursues a modular construction kit strategy that provides innovative drive solutions for all demands and all fleets. As from 2020 BMW will be in a position to integrate either combustion engines or electric drives in all vehicle architectures. By use of the modular construction kit it will be possible to cover an output scalable between 90 kW and more than 250 kW while using only a minimal number of components that can be installed in standard constructed spaces.
