BorgWarner celebrates production of 70 million starters in South Korea

BorgWarner passed a major production milestone at its manufacturing facility in Changnyeong, South Korea, completing production of its 70 millionth starter on Aug. 1, 2019.

To celebrate this remarkable record, all employees came together for a one-day event after it was achieved. The 70 millionth starter was given to the employee who produced the first product ever in the Korean plant.

«We would like to thank our employees in Changnyeong. Without their dedication and the excellent work they have done during the past 22 years, this would not have been possible. Their commitment should enable us to reach the 100 million mark by 2029» said Stefan Demmerle, President and General Manager, BorgWarner PowerDrive Systems.
