GM To Partner Up With BMW In Efficient Engine Development?

While it’s currently unofficial, Forbes is reporting that General Motors is looking to lock arms with BMW in developing new clean engine technologies. The news comes roughly a month after Opel/Vauxhall CEO Karl-Friedrich Stracke voiced out that GM’s European arm was seeking a partner to develop future hybrid engine technology.
If true, both companies will benefit from lowered R&D costs. Additionally, the move makes even more sense based on the fact that both GM and BMW are front runners in alternative fuel and/or high-efficiency technology, but in their separate rights. Whereas GM boasts expertise in fuel cell, and battery development, BMW brings clean diesel technology to the table along with hybrid know-how of its own.
