May 7--BMW will use the four-cylinder engines it has jointly developed with French carmaker PSA in BMW brand cars, chief executive Norbert Reithofer said in a pre-release of his interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. 
     
He said the future generation of the BMW 1 Series will be fitted with these four-cylinder engines. 
     
The report said BMW had previously intended to use these engines only in the Mini brand cars. 
     
Reithofer also disclosed the new generation of the BMW 7-Series, which will be launched this year, will be fitted with a new hybrid engine.
