The Volkswagen Group MLB platform is one of a range of automobile platforms of the Volkswagen Group. MLB stands for the German Modulare Längsbaukasten, which can be loosely translated as "Modular Longitudinal Matrix". It is sometimes also referred to in English as MLP (Modular Longitudinal Platform). This component matrix is intended to allow Volkswagen Group to design a wide variety of longitudinal, front-engined, front-wheel or four-wheel drive models using the same set of components. Cars based on MLB range from mid-size cars to full-size luxury cars.This technology forms the basis of a number of Audi models produced from 2007 onwards, and is also expected to be used for the 2011 Bentley Continental range.
