03/18 5:02P (DJ) DJ BMW Plans To Hire Up To 500 More Engineers -FT
Story 7690
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (BMW.XE), the German
carmaker, plans to hire several hundred electronic and electrical engineers
this year as it attempts to improve the reliability of its vehicles, the
Financial Times reported Thursday.
BMW's recruitment of 300-500 engineers follows the company's creation of 300
new engineering posts, mostly electronic and electronic specialists, last
year, the newspaper said on its Web site.
Auto companies, particularly BMW's arch rival, Daimler-Chrysler AG's (DCX)
Mercedes-Benz, have had problems with reliability in their initial use of
advanced electronics in their vehicles, the Financial Times said.
The newspaper also noted that BMW's $68,000-$117,000 7-Series vehicle was
earlier this month rated by Consumer Reports at the least reliable car after a
year on the road in the U.S.
