Excerpt

Electric mobility has been an integral part of the BMW product strategy since the introduction of the BMW i models i3 and i8, the expansion of the model variety by various plug-in-hybrid vehicles up to the present battery electric vehicles iX, i4 and Mini E. Beside of changing insights of customers worldwide in terms of future mobility and growing importance of sustainability, all OEM are faced to huge challenges in fulfilling the CO2 emissions legislation in the main markets worldwide. For premium-OEMs as BMW this means an extra effort due to the wide model program also in the sportive and luxury segment. Therefore, BMW has identified the electric vehicle as a necessary approach for the future success of the company. To make E-Mobility a sustainable success story, it needs several solutions:
1.
Attractive vehicles according to customer’s requirements, highlighted: range, short charging time, hassle-free handling for charging, affordable prices and cost effectiveness under a total cost of ownership’s view
 
2.
A charging infrastructure that leaves no doubts in terms of the next available charging station including enough fast-charging stations along the routes.
 
3.
Full compatibility to grid standards, energy market legislation and constraints. E-Mobility powered by a maximum of renewable sources.
