Here’s Your First Look At The New VW I.D. SUV Concept

For better or worse, VW is now really pushing its electric vehicle agenda. The e-Up and recently updated e-Golf are already available buy, and now there’s a new member of the futuristic ‘I.D.’ concept family.

Following the I.D. and I.D. Buzz, we now have an as-yet unnamed coupe-ish SUV EV. VW is teasing it ahead of its Shanghai Motor Show debut, revealing only that - like previous I.D. concepts - it’ll go autonomous at the touch of a button, with the steering wheel retracting into the dashboard.

The point of all this? According to VW, it’s all about “advancing electric drive vehicles from the status of a start-up niche to large-scale production models by the middle of the next decade in a worldwide product offensive”. in other words, in about 10 year’s time, a huge chunk of VW’s product range will be electric.

Let’s just hope we can hang on to the Golf GTI for a little longer…
