Volkswagen will be updating its MEB platform, which has been used as the foundation for the company’s electric vehicle (EV) efforts, over the next few years.

The updated version, referred to as MEB+, will feature improvements to the charging and battery systems, as well as an electrical architecture that can support more advanced driver assistance technologies, according to Volkswagen.

MEB+, will incorporate new “unit cell” batteries that will enable a range of up to 435 miles, based on the more lenient European WLTP testing cycle. The company also claims that MEB+ will significantly reduce charging times and may have power rates of up to 175-200 kW.
In addition, Volkswagen plans to launch 10 new EVs worldwide by 2026, including a model starting at around 25,000 euros. Two Ford EVs for Europe will also be based on the MEB platform, and the U.S. market is expected to see the launch of a large electric sedan and the ID.Buzz van. There are also reports that the return of the VW e-Golf is being considered.
