BMW exec says its EVs and combustion-powered models will co-exist well into the future
will not follow in the footsteps of some of its counterparts in specifying a date on which it plans to stop producing internal combustion engines.by 2030 if market conditions allow and Audi will go all-electric by 2033 everywhere other than China, member of the board of management for BMW Group development, Frank Weber, believes that ICE and EV models can continue to co-exist well into the future.
“We will not announce any end date of the combustion engine,” Weber told media members at the recent launch of the new 5-Series. “We will not confuse. It’s really key, it’s really important for us. So you will also see in the future that whether we make an ICE offer or pure BEV offer, they will co-exist in markets because you see a large share of ICE and you see a large share of growing BEV and I think we will match also in the future for the next 10 or 15 years.
