BMW is for sure a huge ZF customer regarding automatic transmissions. (manuals come from getrag, including dkg I think)

I think Mercedes makes their own automatic transmissions and so does VAG I think.

I'm sure ZF also invests in developping electric drivetrains, so the EV market certainly doesn't have to mean bad economical prognosis for ZF.
As long as cars have drivetrains, ZF has potential customers (apart from that ZF is a conglommerate, they also own Sachs, Boge etc etc)
