The wide application within Volkswagen Group brands, resulting volume and the cost-optimized battery design allow us to offer attractive prices directly to our platform customers.

A major advantage of our battery system is scalability: 8, 9 or even 13 battery modules are possible, resulting in capacities from 48 – 91kWH and vehicle driving ranges from 330 to 700km (WLTP).
