BMW said Mr Krüger had been taken to hospital and was “recovering well” and put the collapse down to a “moment of dizziness”. The company added: “As a result, the press conference was cancelled in order that Mr Krüger could be examined by a doctor. Mr Krüger’s health is stable and he is recovering well.” Mr Krüger took over the top job at Munich-based BMW in May, replacing long-serving boss Norbert Reithofer. Mr Krüger was said to have been feeling unwell before the press conference and is not expected to return to the show — a biennial celebration for the German carmakers.
