Small motors like those used by MINI and versatile of the French group, therefore, and are just one of the interests that unite the two companies, the new front to attack are the plugs.
Plans to collaborate on “the issue hybrid” and were provided with a memorandum of understanding in October, but can now be considered sealed awaiting the expected approval of the authorities.
This joint venture, called BMW Electrification Peugeot Citroën, will address the R & D necessary to “develop and manufacture hybrid components, ranging from battery packs for charging systems, to electronic control systems and even software necessary to regulate them. But their ultimate purpose is even more ambitious: to shape an open platform “that will help European industry to be structured in the field of hybridization.”
BMW and PSA are currently some of the most advanced hybrid systems in their segments, so we’re more than just intrigued by this new partnership. Fruit, in any event, we will not see until within a few years.
