The company expects to post revenue of about EUR17bn for 2012, but the margin will be below last year’s 5.5% due to the polarisation of the market, Sommer told the newspaper.
He also said that ZF expects to grow over the next two years on strong orders and the launch of its transmission plant in the US.
