Volkswagen Group MLB platform:
Volkswagen Group markets the strategy under the code name MLB, which stands for Modularer Längsbaukasten, translating from German to “Modular Longitudinal Matrix”. MLB is one strategy within VW’s overall MB (Modulare Baukasten or modular matrix) program which also includes the similar MQB strategy for its vehicles with transverse engine orientation.
The MLB platform includes the Audi A4 B8, A5, A6, A7, A8, the Porsche Macan and others. Cars using these platforms are more expensive to be produced since the engine needs to be engineered below the passenger seats. The MLB platform uses a longitudinal engine. This type of engines is used when the vehicle requires a larger engine and is usually used in rear-wheel vehicles even though some manufacturers like Audi has used it for front-wheel drive systems. Longitudinal engines are mounted down the central line of the car. In terms of driving dynamics there is a more even distribution which makes the car more predictable on the road. This type of engines is usually used for sports cars where the interior space is not that important and the car can take advantage of a more powerful engine. This is the reason why usually more premium cars use it.
The KYDZ MLB tool can generate dealer key for following MLB models:
