BMW continues to build combustion engines – and reveals details of new engines. Reason for sticking to the petrol engine: "We need the ultra-modern combustion engine for a few more years".
Munich – For the carmaker BMW, the end of the combustion engine is still far away. He even developed a whole new generation of engines. The reasoning of the German manufacturer: There is still a lack of infrastructure for the e-car boom, so the transition to electromobility will not be over in five or ten years.
As revealed by kreiszeitung.de*, BMW is even working on a new generation of combustion engines – petrol, diesel, six-cylinder and eight-cylinder.
Against the e-car trend: BMW relies on new combustion engines
BMW development board member Frank Weber criticizes the e-car boom that there are above all too few charging stations and a poor infrastructure for charging options: "Of course the future is electric, only if we force customers into an e-car now and they If everyone is stuck in traffic at the charging station on the way to vacation, then nothing is gained. And nobody can want that.”
