📱 Even more intuitive, comfortable and safe: Digitalization is the true gamechanger for the future of mobility. That’s why we are pushing hard in terms of software, digital features and in-car user experience. Worldwide.   🔋 The latest example: Together with our partner XPENG, Volkswagen Group China is developing an all-new electronics architecture to be ready in 2026 for all our locally produced #VW electric cars. It’s the next milestone for what we call our “in China for China” strategy.   🚗 The “China Electronic Architecture” (CEA) plays a decisive role in the digitalization of our cars, streamlining them to specific customer needs and massive innovation speed in the world’s biggest automarket. As the control center is overseeing all essential electronic functions, it is also the digital link to all basic components such as the powertrain and chassis. The new architecture will be a key pacemaker for us on our way to becoming a leading manufacturer of intelligent, fully networked electric vehicles in China. It is being developed by Volkswagen Group China Technology Company (VCTC) and CARIAD China in cooperation with XPENG, with the Master agreement signed today. CARIAD China will play a key role in the project by also contributing the latest technologies such as state-of-the-art autonomous driving systems (ADAS) and smart cockpit functions.   What’s the logic behind? This new approach reduces complexity and control units in the car, increases cost efficiency and accelerates the expansion of our model portfolio in China. Most importantly our Chinese customers will benefit, because the CEA will make it easier to install updates wirelessly “over the air”. It’s the prerequisite to rapidly expand our digital services and functions at any time.   Stay tuned for Volkswagen’s next chapters on our journey to the digital future.   #volkswagen #innovations #software #china

🇨🇳 CARIAD China & XPENG co-develop the new China Electronic Architecture! The jointly developed zonal electric/electronic architecture will be used in locally produced all-electric vehicles of Volkswagen in China from 2026 on and will turn them into software-defined vehicles. 💬 "With the CEA, we are making a decisive step forward towards the Software Defined Vehicle. We are teaming up our development teams with XPeng colleagues to co-create a leading tech stack in the industry for the specific requirements of Volkswagen customers", says #CARIAD CEO Peter Bosch. In new vehicles with CEA technology, three very powerful central computers will take control over electronic functions, leading to a 30% reduction in the number of ECUs and significantly reduced costs and system complexity, while at the same time increasing performance and safety. Thanks to the efficient structure and high computing power of the new architecture, even complex applications such as autonomous driving functions can be integrated significantly quicker and easier. Software updates for the system can also be developed and installed on customer vehicles much more efficiently as updates can be implemented across zones rather than individual ECUs. CARIAD is also contributing latest tech such as #ADAS and smart cockpit functions. 🤝 Ralf Brandstätter, Member of the Board of Management of Volkswagen Group for China says: "The “China Electronic Architecture” is a clear proof-point of the excellent co-operation between Volkswagen Group China Technology Company, CARIAD China and our partner XPENG."

We are driving forward the digitalization of our vehicles - at #China Speed. 📱 🚘 Our centerpiece: The new “China Electronic Architecture” (CEA). It will become the central digital system for  the locally produced Volkswagen brand e-portfolio in China - including all cars on China Main Platform and MEB Platform - starting 2026! Unleashed by the power of three strong partners: the Volkswagen Group China Technology Company (VCTC), CARIAD China and our strategic partner XPENG. We just signed our master agreement for our cooperation! 🖊️ As zonal electric/electronic architectures essentially act as the car’s control system and oversee all digital functions, the CEA is a gamechanger for us.   Why do we call it a gamechanger? 1️⃣Reduced complexity: Three very powerful central computers will take over electronic functions, leading to a 30% reduction in the number of control units. 📉 2️⃣Scalability: The CEA is a holistic technological solution that is tailored for the China market, allowing us to accelerate the digital expansion of our model portfolio in China, for China. 🇨🇳 3️⃣Future-ready upgradability: Complex applications including ADAS and future software updates can be integrated easily thanks to its high computing power. 💻 4️⃣Optimized cost structures: Reduced complexity will of course reduce costs, a benefit we pass on to our customers. 💰 Volkswagen Group is driving forward. In just 24 months, our team of experts at VCTC, CARIAD China and XPENG will bring this architecture to the locally produced Volkswagen brand portfolio  based on the new China Main Platform and those on the global MEB electric drive matrix. One system for all!   This is also a significant milestone for CARIAD China. As modern vehicles increasingly turn into smart phones on wheels, CARIAD China is fundamentally transforming to a coding specialist to develop state-of-the-art software for ADAS, UX and smart cockpit functions. Pushed by Peter Bosch and Frank (Sanchu) Han.   Volkswagen is welcoming the ICV era with agility. With the CEA, Volkswagen for the first time is developing its own local E/E architecture, that is technologically and economically geared exclusively to the specific needs of the Chinese market. It will therefore be a key pacemaker for Volkswagen on its way to becoming a leading manufacturer of intelligent, fully networked electric vehicles in China.   Thereby we are strengthening our long-term competitiveness in the China market. The CEA is just the latest proof point. Stay tuned! 🙌🏼☝🏼

Driving the future: How China's NEV sector is transforming the automotive landscape Over the past three years, China's passenger car market has experienced significant structural changes, especially in the New Energy Vehicle (NEV) sector. With technological advancements, policy support, and the rapid development of intelligent technology, NEVs—characterized by electrification, intelligence, and automation—are gradually replacing internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. Despite the Chinese government's ambitious targets and supportive policies, many traditional foreign automakers have been slow to adapt, with only Tesla making significant strides among foreign brands. Domestic brands like BYD, GEELY, XPENG, Li Auto, and NIO have emerged as leaders, driving the rise of Chinese automobiles. The market share of Chinese brands rose from 35.8% in 2020 to 56.1% in early 2024, showcasing China's commitment to environmental goals and innovation. The 2024 IMD China Company Transformation Indicator (CCTI) highlights that top NEV companies excel in Early Innovation, R&D, and Business Diversity.
