Volkswagen will improve MEB platform
According to foreign media reports, Volkswagen is preparing to improve its MEB platform, which will enable electric vehicles using the platform to obtain better parameters, such as increasing the range to 435 miles (about 700 kilometers). The company has previously released a number of models based on MEB platform, including id.3, id.4, and id.buzz, which will be on sale soon.
Yicai comment: Volkswagen MEB platform is its first pure electric vehicle platform. At present, the sales of ID series models are rising. From the perspective of the Chinese market, although the ID series has been rising in the past few months, there is still a certain gap compared with some new forces of car making. For the automotive market, the ability of fast iteration is very important. At present, the models of new forces in car making have surpassed the electric vehicle products of traditional car enterprises such as Volkswagen in terms of mileage and other parameters, which is also the reason why Volkswagen improves the MEB platform.
