The ID. family marked the beginning of a new era of electric mobility at Volkswagen in 2020. The brand has now launched a complete model family that is powered entirely by electricity. The first series-production vehicle in this family was the compact ID.3. This was followed by other saloons and SUVs, as well as the electric Volkswagen ID. Buzz. All derivatives are based on the Modular Electric Drive Matrix (MEB) – a platform designed exclusively for electric vehicles. The vehicles impress with their long electric ranges, fast charging function, new digital features and generous space.

The all-new ID. Polo GTI - World premiere
New Volkswagen hot hatch. It is the GTI for a new era: exactly 50 years after the debut of the first GTI, Volkswagen is now presenting the first all-electric model with the world-famous label: the completely newly developed ID. Polo GTI with an output of 166 kW (226 PS). It is a powerful and highly agile compact sports car that passes the 100 km/h mark from a standstill in 6.8 seconds – a hot hatch in the best sense, but at the same time suitable for everyday driving. Like the first GTI from 1976, the new ID. Polo GTI’s drive power is transferred to the wheels via the front axle in 2026 as well – a maximum of 290 newton-metres that is available at lightning speed. Power that is perfectly proportioned thanks to the electronically controlled front differential lock. On board as standard. -

The all-new electric ID. Polo - World premiere
Pre-sales start. Volkswagen delivers and is bringing affordable electric mobility to the road with the new ID. Polo. Pre-sales of the first electric Polo will start as soon as the end of April. It is the seventh generation of a bestseller that has been sold more than 20 million times – only this time it is all-electric and completely new. The ID. Polo is based on the current evolutionary stage of the modular electric drive platform: the MEB+. The electric Volkswagen comes with front-wheel drive. Thanks to the particularly compact MEB+ modules, the new ID. Polo offers significantly more space than a comparable model with conventional drive. The new Volkswagen was developed within the Group as a joint project of the Brand Group Core. This is associated with strong synergy effects, which help the new ID. Polo to offer excellent value for money. The ID. Polo Trend – the already well-equipped entry-level model – will be launched in Germany at prices starting from 24,995 euros, for example. The ID. Polo Life (with focus on comfort) and the dynamically elegant ID. Polo Style will be available as further equipment lines. A sporty flagship model will also follow next year: the ID. Polo GTI. Common to all four versions is an unparalleled level of quality. The new model also excels in terms of its technologies – for example, with the new Connected Travel Assist including automatic traffic light recognition, one-pedal driving (strong deceleration of the car solely by control of the accelerator) or the Vehicle-to-Load function, in which the car becomes a power source for external devices such as e-bikes.
