Offers for individual mobility face globally changing requirements which pose majorchallenges to automobile manufacturers. The objective of the BMW Group, which isconsistently pursued, is to be the leading manufacturer of premium vehicles and supplierof premium mobility services. In this regard, the sustainability of the product offers isparticularly important.In the next few decades, conventional powertrains will remain an important pillar of thesolution portfolio although their limitations make the introduction of alternatives necessary.This includes primarily electrification and, in the long term, also alternative fuels such ashydrogen.Especially with the internal combustion engines with BMW TwinPower Turbo, the BMWGroup already possesses impressive technology suitable for the brand and competition onthe market which will also form the basis of the next engine generation. The successfulintroduction to electrification by the BMW Group was implemented by means of the BMWActiveHybrid technology offer in core vehicle series. This will be continued with the newsub-brand BMW i, whose unique selling point is the consistent orientation to sustainabilityand whose "born electric" concept is oriented towards the electrification and integration ofinnovative powertrain solutions.The BMW Group also looks beyond vehicles. With mobility services in conjunction with butalso independent of the vehicle, we are already introducing trailblazing mobility solutions tothe market. The infrastucture provision for ensuring electric mobility, or the long-termdevelopment of a hydrogen infrastructure, is supported by the BMW Group by means ofcross-industry initiatives.
