According to foreign media reports, the head of BMW Group R&D said that the company plans to reach more agreements with mining companies to ensure the source of electric vehicle battery materials, and is willing to form alliances with other companies to share the development costs of autonomous vehicle systems. .
Klaus Froehlich, a member of the BMW Group Management Committee, said that in terms of batteries, the BMW Group tries to control the supply of raw materials to its battery manufacturing partners to ensure that its battery costs are lower than its competitors. Froehlich said the BMW Group will reach an agreement with mining companies and ensure that it purchases cobalt materials from mining companies that do not squeeze workers or employ child labor.
The BMW Group also disclosed that it has reached an agreement with my country's CATL and South Korea's Samsung Electronics. However, Froehlich said the company will use BMW's unique design to supply its batteries. Froehlich said, "In the field of electric mobility, you must become a cost leader, otherwise you will not survive."
This month, European luxury car brands set off a wave of electric car marketing. German automakers and their competitors (including Jaguar Land Rover and Volvo Cars) have launched new electric vehicle models. Regulatory agencies in my country, Europe, and California are putting pressure on these traditional car manufacturers to produce more clean cars. At the same time, European automakers also hope to prevent more consumers from flocking to buy Tesla electric cars.
