BorgWarner will expand its Powertrain Technical centre in Auburn Hills, Michigan, to support programs in North America and supplement its global network of technical centres. The nearly 46,000-square-foot addition will include space for program managers, sales and engineering professionals. Driven by the company’s escalating growth, the expansion is expected to be complete in early 2015 and support up to 200 regular full-time jobs at the BorgWarner facility. “Around the world, BorgWarner is building new manufacturing facilities to deliver technologies engineered to improve fuel economy, emissions and performance. Expanding the Powertrain Technical centre in Michigan will help us accelerate innovation for current and future programs,” said Christopher P Thomas, vice president and chief technology officer, BorgWarner, and leader of the Powertrain Technical centre in Auburn Hills.

Opened in 2002, the centre unified the company’s diverse businesses into a ‘powertrain powerhouse,’ accommodating engineering, research and development, sales and marketing for each group. Earlier this year, the company completed a new engineering garage and vehicle test lab at the technical centre.
