Cooperation Bosch and Samsung coming to an end?

The development of electric vehicles is a complex and costly task. Engaged in the development of high-tech cars of the future, companies prefer in collaboration with at least a major specialist in the field of automotive or electronics. However, the more globally the goals are and the more well-known the partners, the harder it is for them to agree among themselves - the sad truth, which can be confirmed by the termination of cooperation between Bosch and Samsung.

The German-Korean enterprise, established 3 years ago, had high hopes. Investment in this project is 500 million dollars and this is only in the first 5 years. A plant in South Korea has already been built, another in Germany is preparing for the opening, and the production of batteries for electric vehicles will be put on stream ...

The desire of the South Korean giant to direct part of the potential of the joint venture SB Limotive to the field of consumer electronics intervened in this cloudless picture. The German Bosch, not alien to this issue and famous as a manufacturer of household appliances and electronics, perceived a deviation from the previous agreements negatively. The Germans intend to focus the forces of SB Limotive exclusively on the creation and production of batteries for electric vehicles.

At the moment, bosch and Samsung are at the stage of negotiations on the path of further development of SB Limotive. Will they succeed in finding a common language, or will they repeat the path of Daimler and Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Volkswagen, who also tried to work together and failed in this matter, the immediate future will show.
