BMW sells Husqvarna
« on: January 31, 2013, 05:42:46 PM »
Today BMW announced that they are selling Husqvarna to KTM.  So why is that being posted here? 

Because the press release includes the following statement:

"The next step in the expansion of the product line-up in this segment will be the series launch of the “C evolution” electric scooter in 2014. Further innovative vehicle concepts are also under consideration. Drive trains will include both environmentally-friendly combustion engines and pure electric drives.

"This move by BMW Motorrad reflects the BMW Group’s overall focus on early identification of trends, such as megacities and traffic density, as well as environmental issues. Corresponding products and services are already available for the Automobile segment
."
