| Abstract |
Volkswagen AG is focusing on the world of mobility in 2030. By 2030, the global market for electricvehicles will have caught up with that of combustion engines, including in terms of sales volume.With a view to tapping into the revenue streams offered by the new world of mobility, we are in theprocess of developing industry-leading platforms. The platform approach will be the key to success inthe technological world of tomorrow. These platforms form the backbone of the strategy and provide high-quality, industry leading technology at unprecedented scale and competitive cost. The Scalable System Platform (SSP) will allow us to reduce complexity. It covers the entire product portfolio, from entry models to high-end vehicles. The Group Components Technical Development division for E-Drive and Transmission, based at Kassel, Wolfsburg and Ingolstadt locations, is taking a leading role in the development of electric drivetrains for the SSP. One area of focus is the Group-wide responsibility to develop all future inverters. Therefore we are designing a modular system for future drivetrains on the SSP platform. Our aim is to design electric drivetrains that are the best-in-class. Inverter and software are the key components in this regard. |
