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

Our product portfolio serves the growing level of demand for electrified models and at the same time takes into account the varying framework conditions and customer needs in each individual market. In addition to all-electric vehicles, our customers can therefore choose from a wide range of plug-in hybrids and vehicles powered by efficient combustion en- gines. Our flexible production systems and scalable modular vehicle sys- tem reflect our rigorous focus on customer needs. With the launch of the new BMW i5, a further model series is now available with all three types of drive system, which previously applied to the BMW X1, BMW X3, BMW 3 Series and the BMW 7 Series. At the BMW Group, customer-oriented technological diversity also in- cludes the ongoing development of fuel cell technology. Depending on the segment, we see hydrogen-powered electric vehicles as a potentially key alternative to battery-powered electric mobility and thus as an opportuni- ty to reduce carbon emissions even more quickly. INCREASING RANGE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE Designing electric vehicle ranges to match user behaviour. The BMW Group assesses the increase in the electric ranges of its vehicles from various points of view. Our main approach is to optimally adapt vehicle ranges to the respective purpose of use and user behaviour. With this strat- egy we also take into account the environmental impact, as greater range also means deploying larger and therefore heavier high-voltage batteries. This relationship has an effect on resource consumption and the carbon footprint of the supply chain as well as the vehicle’s weight and therefore its electricity consumption. The new all-electric MINI Cooper SE, which is mainly designed for urban use, has a customer-focused range of around 400 kilometres (WLTP2). The new BMW i5 can achieve a range of up to 582 km in the statutory WLTP test cycle, depending on factors such as equipment and type of motor. With of- fers such as the BMW eDrive Zone, attractive electricity tariffs for driving, charging equipment, the integration of charging in the vehicle app and in- creased ranges, we are helping drivers of plug-in hybrids to drive electrically as frequently and over as long a distance as possible. For instance, the BMW X5 Plug-in-Hybrid from the compact segment can cover up to 110 kilo- metres (WLTP2) solely on battery power. As an innovation brand, the BMW Group is shaping the technologies for the mobility of the future. BMW stands for a progressive understanding of premium that is committed to holistic sustainability and electromobility. Vehicles such as the BMW i4, BMW i5, BMW i5 Touring, BMW i7, BMW iX1, BMW iX2, BMW iX3, BMW iX, BMW i Vision Circular, MINI Cooper SE, MINI Countryman SE and the MINI Aceman are good examples of this orientation. THE BMW GROUP IS CONSTANTLY RETHINKING TECHNOLOGY AND MOBILITY.

Battery cells, locally sourced: The BMW Group is developing the regional supply chain for battery materials. The “local for local” approach will save CO₂, streamline logistics and boost the efficiency of our production network. We are also concentrating battery cell production at our new Cell Manufacturing Competence Centre in Parsdorf – along with our innovation and expertise in this field. The BMW Group, then, is bringing the entire process of battery cell produc- tion together under one umbrella, right from the supply chain. As a key com- ponent in electric cars, batteries are very much the focus and a key issue in the development of electric mobility. BATTERY CELL PRODUCTION.
