BMW is planning on reducing its production costs in order to be more competitive on the global automotive market and to boost its sales compared to rivals like Mercedes-Benz, APA reports citing Teletrader.
"We will reduce production costs per vehicle by 25% by 2025 - based on the 2019 level," Milan Nedeljkovic, who serves on the Bavarian automaker's board of directors, told Handelsblatt on Tuesday. Last year, Mercedes narrowly beat BMW as the best-selling luxury car brand.
Meanwhile, in other automotive news, it was reported that Daimler plans on producing its own battery cells for the company's electric vehicles.
