Tue May 30 13:46:00 CEST 2017 Press Kit
Personal mobility and its industrial application are on the brink of a technological quantum leap. The car and the technologies that make it tick are set to change more in the next 10 years than they have in the past 30 combined. The BMW Group and its partners are working together on standards, platforms and a backend for the future of automated driving and would be delighted to welcome new partners into their alliance at any time.
