Extended range EV producer Fisker Automotive has announced the signing of an agreement with BMW that will cover the supply of engines and other components for future Fisker models.

In a statement, Fisker said BMW would supply a four-cylinder turbocharged engine for the next generation of Fisker cars, code-named ‘Project Nina’, which are scheduled to go into production in the re-commissioned former GM plant in Wilmington, Delaware at the end of 2012 and be on sale globally in 2013.

California-based Fisker Automotive recently established a European office in BMW’s home town of Munich, Germany.
