BMW CEO Harald Krueger (Harald Krueger) recently stated that because the current technology is not enough to generate enough profits to expand the scale of production, BMW will not mass-produce electric vehicles for the time being. Production will not be realized until at least 2020.
Munich-based BMW launched its first battery electric car in 2013. Since then, the company has been committed to developing batteries, software and electric vehicle technology.
BMW will launch the i8 Roadster roadster in May this year, which is equipped with BMW's fourth-generation electric drive technology. BMW said that thanks to advances in battery materials and chemistry, the cruising range of this model has increased by 40% over the previous generation.
BMW is working hard to make electric vehicle technology more modular and scalable in order to achieve the commercial viability of mass production of electric vehicles.
Kruger told analysts in Munich: "We want to wait for the fifth generation of technology to come out, when this technology will be more cost-competitive. We don't want to expand production when the fourth generation of technology is available."
Kruger said that the cost difference between BMW's fourth-generation and fifth-generation electric vehicle technology is "double-digit", but he did not disclose the specific number.
He said: "If you want to win in the competition, you must be the most cost-competitive company in this field, otherwise you cannot increase production."
BMW said that the company is developing sixth-generation technology and will invest hundreds of millions of euros in battery research to better understand mass production.
BMW currently has 10 factories around the world that can produce electric vehicles, but mainly focus on hybrid vehicles. Hybrid vehicles are a combination of internal combustion engines and battery-driven electric motors, rather than relying solely on batteries to power the vehicle.
BMW said that the company hopes to launch 25 new electric vehicle models by 2025, 12 of which will be battery-powered pure electric vehicles.
BMW expects that it will be able to master a new production method starting in 2020. By then, it will be able to produce cars with various types of power, namely pure electric, hybrid and internal combustion engine powered cars.
BMW will start producing an all-electric mini car in a factory in the suburbs of Oxford, England in 2019, and then start producing battery-electric X3 off-road vehicles in 2020.
BMW is increasing the number of factories producing X3 off-road vehicles. In addition to Spartanburg in the United States, it will start producing X3 off-road vehicles in China and South Africa this year.
Kruger said that BMW has selected Contemporary Amperex Technology as its battery production partner in China.
