BMW recognized the non-alternativeness of six- and eight-cylinder engines

The company top managers have almost synchronously spoke about the future gasoline engines. For the USA and the Middle East, V8 engines are needed, and the refusal of six -cylinder units in favor of “turbo -shit” on the models of series M is impossible even for the sake of reducing emissions. BMW believes that the matter is not only in performance, but also in sound and sensations.

Johen Goller, member of the BMW board of directors, in an interview with the Financial Times said that sales of electric vehicles in the United States may slow down [после указа Трампа]But the company maintains optimism in relation to gasoline and charged hybrid versions. Another Bavarian top manager Frank Weber emphasized the importance of the V8 in some markets in an interview with Automotive News Europe.

The new duties of the United States on the BMW will appear to a lesser extent, because 65% of the cars sold behind the ocean are gathering there. At the future of internal combustion engines, the Bavarians are not ready to put a cross: fuel engines will continue to improve and adapt to tightening the economy.

Johen Goller emphasized that “people do not want to undergo discrimination due to power plant.” He is echoed by Fran van Mil, BMW MW BMW M. Drive, the leader said that in the development of “all kinds of concepts”, therefore, both gasoline and purely electrical options are being worked out.

However, the charged hybrid based on the “turbocharges” is not included in the BMW M plans: such downsizing harms the time on the circle, since the power plant cannot work in the maximum performance mode. The weak sales of the Mercedes-AMG superhibride C 63 with a 2.0-liter engine confirm the correctness of the BMW conservative strategy.
