JAKARTA - Like many other automotive companies that have started the transition to electric vehicles, BorgWarner will also support the development of EV charging.
To that end, in its 2nd quarter earnings results this year, BorgWarner announced that it has acquired Rhombus Energy Solutions, headquartered in San Diego, California.

"The technology that Rhombus brings expands BorgWarner's electric vehicle portfolio in North America and complements our charging business in Europe," said Frédéric Lissalde, President and CEO of BorgWarner.
Lissalde continued, this transaction supports BorgWarner's Charging Forward strategy and strengthens its electric vehicle position.
“As a supplier to the automotive and commercial vehicle market, we are not only delivering innovative technologies for electric drive, but we are also focused on supporting certain key elements of infrastructure for electric mobility, including charging,” he added.
This is not the first acquisition by BorgWarner, according to a report from Electrek, on March 31, 2022, BorgWarner has acquired 100% of Santroll Automotive Components, a light vehicle eMotor business.
