BMW and Rimac join forces for a common cause
The historic German manufacturer BMW and the young sporty startup Rimac are developing high-voltage batteries.
The goal of the collaboration between BMW and Rimac is to co-develop and co-produce innovative solutions in the field of high-voltage battery technology. These units will be used in BMW’s upcoming range expected starting from 2025.
Even before the 2030 target, battery electric vehicles will account for more than half of BMW’s global vehicle sales. The German manufacturer brings to this partnership its expertise in batteries and electric propulsion systems accumulated over more than 15 years.
The Good and the Bad
Rimac Technology has established itself in just a few years as a major player in this new electric automotive world. The Croatian-origin brand contributes high-voltage batteries, electric transmissions, and a wide range of software to the partnership. This long-term collaboration with the BMW Group should allow Rimac to scale up from a niche high-performance solution provider to a broader-volume manufacturer.
This new strategic cooperation by the BMW Group coincides well with the launch of its Neue Klasse lineup, with the first model to be released on the market in 2025. It is also easy to imagine Bugatti’s shadow behind Rimac.
