Most Cars In 2035 America Will Still Have Gas Engines, Bosch Claims

""Up through 2035, there will be [internal combustion] technology in 70% of vehicles," said Paul Thomas, the president of Bosch in North America and the local head of its mobility business. Thomas later clarified that this figure refers to the North American market, and not elsewhere in the world. But he also offered a qualifier about just how those engines might be used."

""Now, will they have a range extender on that vehicle? Will they have a mild hybrid or a strong hybrid? We think so, and we do think battery electric vehicles will still have a place in the marketthat hasn't changed much from what I said last year, which is that the ramp-up of electrification has changed based upon consumer demand."

Bosch projects that roughly 70% of vehicles sold in North America through 2035 will incorporate internal-combustion technology. Those powertrains will frequently be implemented as mild or strong hybrids, plug-in hybrids, or as range extenders for electric drivetrains. Bosch supplies components across the automotive spectrum, from fuel injectors and sensors to electric motors, and is investing in advanced EV components and artificial intelligence. The company views the pace of electrification as influenced by consumer demand, implying a continued market role for battery-electric vehicles alongside a variety of hybridized and range-extender solutions.
