Advantages of VDA 355

Building on VDA 355 puts a proven, widely supplied module at the heart of your pack, and takes a whole category of risk out of the project before it starts.

What you get

• Proven mechanics. The envelope and its interfaces are in series production across the industry — you integrate a known quantity.
• Drop-in integration. Fixed mounting, fixed terminals, a defined cooling face. The pack design work is done once and stays done.
• Two chemistries, one envelope. LFP for cycle life and thermal margin, NMC for energy density — without touching the tray.
• Secure supply. A standard format means a second source is a commercial decision, not a redesign. That matters in this market.
• Faster to market. Mechanical and thermal validation carries across builds, and that is usually the long pole in the schedule.
• Serviceable for years. The module is the unit you replace, and a standard unit stays available long after the original build.
• Value beyond the first life. The same standardisation suits cabinet and container storage, so modules keep earning after the vehicle application ends.

It adds up commercially too

Tooling, qualification, spares and second-sourcing are where battery projects quietly spend their budget. A standard module takes those costs off the table and puts the money into the part of the product that actually differentiates you.

Start from a finished module

Avantis Energy supplies prismatic cells and complete modules in the VDA and MEB formats, so you integrate a proven module instead of validating your own. See the module range, or send Avantis Energy your configuration, voltage and quantity and get a quotation back. No account needed.
