  • Board authorized another $1 billion buyback through 2029 after Q2 margin expansion.
  • IAA Transportation 2026 showed BorgWarner winning commercial EV battery and inverter design pipelines.

What critics are saying

  • Battery Energy Systems sales fell $60 million in Q2 2026, signaling weak execution.
  • Organic sales declined 1.2% in Q2 2026 despite higher margins and buybacks.
  • If OEMs shift faster to in-house power electronics, BorgWarner loses a core business by 2029.

BorgWarner wins first aluminium-wire eMotor deal with Chinese OEM, cutting weight 60% and cost 80%

BorgWarner has won its first order for a new aluminium-wire eMotor from a major Chinese original equipment manufacturer (OEM). It is the technology's first market introduction. The motor uses aluminium-wire hairpin winding and will go into hybrid vehicles as generator motors and as traction motors for auxiliary drive. Production is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2026. Compared with a copper-wire motor of similar specifications, BorgWarner says the design keeps peak torque and peak power while cutting weight by more than 60% and cost by more than 80%. The two companies have worked together for more than 15 years. The award extends that partnership into a new application.

BorgWarner unveils new LFP Compact Battery.

BorgWarner unveils new LFP Compact Battery. BorgWarner showcased its next-generation LFP Compact Battery Pack for commercial vehicles at IAA Transportation 2026, featuring optimized packaging, reduced weight and a smaller footprint. Automotive technology company BorgWarner has made the European trade show debut of its next-generation Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) Compact Pack at IAA Transportation 2026 in Hanover, Germany. The company is expanding its propulsion portfolio for commercial vehicles across both battery-electric and internal combustion powertrains. According to BorgWarner, the new LFP battery architecture has been developed with more optimized packaging, reduced weight and a smaller overall footprint. These improvements are designed to help lower production costs while supporting the requirements of commercial vehicle manufacturers and fleet operators. The technology comes as commercial vehicle manufacturers and fleet operators face increasing pressure to meet stringent emission norms while maintaining total cost of ownership (TCO), vehicle performance and payload capacity. Alongside the battery system, BorgWarner also showcased integrated eDrive units, power electronics and thermal management solutions at IAA Transportation 2026. The company is focusing on these technologies to support the electrification and decarbonisation of commercial vehicles. Dr. Paul Farrell, Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer, BorgWarner, said commercial vehicle manufacturers need to balance requirements including emissions reduction, energy efficiency, performance, durability and cost.
