      No, it doesn’t. It means “we’re unfit for the industry’s transition to electric vehicles”.

        Yeah, everyone that Is buying an ebike wants a Bosch motor. Also basically the same goes for EVs. And also a lot of electronics, like abs is made by Bosch.

          The Schwieberdingen plant develops combustion engines. Certainly not relevant for EVs. The other site in Feuerbach is for logistics and office stuff, so the first thing they cut.

          The simple truth is that an electric drive train is much simpler then a combustion engine one. That means less workers.

          And a company building injection and ignition systems for combustion engines, which soon won’t be needed anymore.
