After more than 30 years of supplying our business partner Rosenbauer with the BMW Motorrad boxer engine for the load capacity syringe, a new supply contract was signed between BMW AG and the business partner Rosenbauer. The BMW 6-cylinder diesel engine is used in a technologically newly developed electrified fire truck as a generator (range extender) and pump drive. The start of production for the vehicle is targeted for the end of 2021. The start of the test phase of first pre-serial trucks will be in the 2nd half of 2020.
If you are interested, please contact Mr. Sever Pusnik, Sever.Pusnik@bmw.com for further information.
In the summer of 2017, a strategically important decision was made at Rosenbauer: Building on CFT technology (CFT stands for Concept Fire Truck). The series development of this vehicle type has been started.
Not only Rosenbauer, also Designwerk and Karsan trust in BMW components. A business with potential - says Uwe Breitweg, Vice President Powertrain Systems Business Customers at the BMW Group.
