Stuttgart-based Borgward Group AG plans to launch its first electric vehicle, a modified version of the BX7 crossover, next year in China and Europe.
Exterior styling changes from the conventionally powered BX7 are minimal. The electric version gets a modified grille and updated fenders.
Borgward also will launch the smaller BX6 crossover later this year in the Middle East and South America. Availability will be expanded to southeast Asia next year.
Borgward, a brand that dates back to 1919, was relaunched in 2008 with backing from Beijing-based Beiqi Foton Motor Co. The revived carmaker currently offers the BX5 and BX7.
