BMW is loosing executive employees for a Chinese company

Are we going to drive Chinese cars instead of BMW in the near future? It seems true after the immegration of BMW executives to the Chinese firm called Future Mobility Corp.

 

Dirk Abendroth, Benoit Jacob and Henrik Wenders will join Future Mobility Corp in the near future after resining from BMW. The executive will fill the positions of vice presidents of software and connectivity, design, and marketing, respectively. The executives will join Carsten Breitfeld, the former project manager for BMW’s i8 plug-in sports car hired to be Future Mobility’s chief executive officer.

 

Future Mobility is one of several electric vehicle startups which is growing rappidly in China. It is backed up by the governmenet of China which looks for more innovation within its auto industry. Policy makers have also earmarked new-energy vehicles, the government’s term for plug-in and fully-electric autos, as a strategic, emerging industry for support.

 

No one from BMW accepted to give comments about these resignations. So we are not sure when the executives will start with Future Mobility.
