BMW Group Electromobility

The BMW Group sees the electrification of its model range as a key component of its product strategy to reduce fleet emissions and thus achieve its ambitious strategic CO₂ reduction targets. 2025 sees the BMW Group take its core BMW brand into a new era that’s fully electric in every respect – with the launch of the Neue Klasse. By the early 2030s our MINI and Rolls-Royce product portfolios will be fully electric only, taking the BMW Group another step closer to its goal of more than 50% BEVs in global sales – achievable if certain conditions are in place at that point, such as a comprehensive charging infrastructure. By 2030 the BMW Group ex- pects to have delivered a grand total of more than 10 million fully electric cars to customers worldwide. THINKING HOLISTICALLY ABOUT ELECTRIC MOBILITY. The BMW Group’s electrified vehicles are characterised by their high effi- ciency and low consumption. However, the BMW Group has greater aspi- rations: its vehicles need to be as eco-friendly as possible, not only during their locally carbon-free use phase, but also in terms of their overall foot- print, including the supply chain and production. Unlike conventional com- bustion engine-powered vehicles, the environmental impact of battery- powered automobiles lies predominantly in the upstream value chain. Where the use of natural raw materials to manufacture battery cells and the carbon-intensive production of batteries make a significant impact. It is therefore particularly important to the BMW Group to include environ- mental and social aspects in the production of components such as elec- tric motors, high-voltage storage systems and battery cells. Other ap- proaches to mitigating the environmental impacts include increasing the use of recycling and reusing high-voltage storage units from our BEV and PHEV models in an appropriate manner. The BMW Group offers cus- tomers who purchase its battery-powered vehicles the option to take back their high-voltage batteries free of charge. The offer also applies to mar- kets where take-back is not mandatory by law. Electromobility BMW GROUP ELECTROMOBILITY. DE EN Menu Innovation Drive Technologies Electromobility
