Modular toolkit strategy as recipe for success: the MQB celebrates tenth anniversary

A global bestseller from #Volkswagen is celebrating its tenth anniversary: the modular transverse matrix (MQB). Since 2012, it has been the common basis for a variety of models. More than 32 million vehicles were produced on this platform throughout the Group. The #Volkswagen brand has more than 20 million vehicles manufactured so far – from the small Polo to SUVs such as the Atlas (USA) and the Teramont (China).

At the same time, the modular matrix philosophy has also been transferred to the electric world, with today's ID. models based on the MEB (modular electric drive matrix).

The next generation will use the SSP – the Scalable Systems Platform – as the Group's electric technology matrix. It enables the vehicle to be completely connected to its ecosystem and thereby lays the foundations for fully automated driving (Level 4).

  • With more than 32 million vehicles produced, the modular transverse toolkit (MQB) is Volkswagen's most successful technology platform
  • MQB stands for innovative technologies, flexible drive concepts and synergies across product lines
  • The modular matrix success story continues: from the MQB through the MEB to the SSP
