Volkswagen's SSP vehicle architecture back on track for 2026 debut
This one skateboard chassis will eventually replace the current MQB, MLB, MSB and MMB internal combustion platforms, the present MEB, PPE and J1 electric platforms, and the MEB+ arriving in 2025. It will be powered by new"unified"of various chemistries developed in-house and running on an 800-volt electrical architecture.
To get a sense of scale and return on investment when this is all put together, the current MEB platform sits under about ten models total, from the ID.3 to the Audi E-tron GT. The large SSP will support 14 models from Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini and Porsche by itself. According to Blume, those 14 SSP-based models are predicted to sell about 1.14 million units between debut and 2038, netting the group more than 150 billion in revenue, with profit margins above 20%.
It's not clear which vehicle will introduce the world to the SSP in 2026, but we do know the second-generation all-electricE-Tron, Audi's Project Artemis and Volkswagen's Project Trinity have all been penciled in around that time. If Blume's assertions still hold weight at that time, then a line from Herbert Diess' 2021 presentation could still come true: That come 2030, VW will make more money in the EV business than the ICE business.
