为满足日益严格的二氧化碳排放目标，大众集团预计到2025年，其混动车、插电混动车和纯电动车销量达到约100万辆。大众第一步是扩大新能源车型阵容，到2020年底前将推出20款新能源车。这其中包括2018年推出纯电动的奥迪Q6以及保时捷Mission E概念车的量产版车型。这项计划的核心是生产更多电气化车型，这些车将基于新的MEB平台。由于采用模块化平台，工程师可以为各种类型的车辆和车身结构搭配不同的硬件。其中某些纯电动车行驶里程达到500公里，这其中包括第二代辉腾增加纯电动版本。大众品牌产品主管Thomas Ulbrich透露，公司计划将三个欧洲工厂电气化车型产量增加一倍以满足急剧增加的需求。大众目前每年可以生产7.5万辆甚至更多的电气化车型产能，但目前市场需求赶不上产能的增加。

 

VW Group aims to sell 1M electrified cars annually by 2025

The German automotive conglomerate estimates that it will have to sell around 1 million hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and electric cars annually by 2025 in order to meet the stricter CO2 targets. The first step is to expand the portfolio of cars which are less harmful to the environment by 20 new models by the end of the decade. Some relevant examples worth mentioning include the all-electric Audi Q6 due in 2018 and a production version of Porsche’s stunning Mission E concept.

 

At the heart of VW’s efforts to build more electrified cars will be the new MEB architecture which will underpin a wide array of vehicles. It’s going to be a modular platform which means the engineers will be able to adapt the hardware to numerous vehicle types and body structures. Some of the pure electric cars are going to have a maximum range of up to 310 miles (500 km) and at the forefront of the VW core brand will be the second-generation Phaeton set to spawn an EV version.

 

VW brand production chief Thomas Ulbrich revealed in a recent press event in Wolfsburg the company is ready to double production of electrified cars at three European factories in case of a surge in demand. He went on to specify VW already has the capacity to assemble as much as 75,000 electrified cars or even more each year, but right now there’s not enough demand to match the production potential.
