Chassis Platform

MLB Evo.

MLB Evo is VAG's longitudinal modular platform — RS4 / RS5 B9, S4 / S5 B9, RS6 / RS7 C8, A6 / A7 C8, Macan 95B, and the Q7 / Q8 / SQ7 / SQ8. The platform shares cooling, brake, and aero hardware across multiple chassis, making the parts ecosystem broader than the chassis count suggests.
