BorgWarner, a globally operating provider of mobility solutions for the automotive market, announced an investment in San Luis Potosi that includes a new production facility focused on power electronics components and electric motors. The supplier chose San Luis Potosí as a strategic location to be a key player in the supply chain for the industry in Mexico and globally. BorgWarner has already been operating in this state for more than eight years.

"We are very proud of this project, which is firmly committed to enabling a sustainable future. Our Charging Forward 2027 strategy requires agility and innovation, which is why we have the responsibility to drive the transition to electrification not only in production but also in product development," says Dr. Stefan Demmerle, President and General Manager of BorgWarner PowerDrive Systems.
