technical solutions to reduce energy consumption and increase the range. Thanks to a combined WLTP consumption of just 16.3 to 14.1 kWh over 100 kilometres, the electric Volkswagen’s range is close to that of models with a petrol engine. The energy consumption and the high WLTP range of up to 621 kilometres2 has been achieved through a combination of various factors: The ID.7’s new drive system is particularly efficient and the latest battery cells are characterised by high energy density. Another factor is the aerodynamic body with a drag coefficient of just 0.23, which (depending on equipment) helps to reduce energy consumption. Silent performance and quick charging. With its almost silent drive and the lowest possible level of wind noise, the disturbance inside the ID.7 is at a standard only ever achieved by luxury saloons in the world of combustion engines. At the same time, the Volkswagen, which is electronically governed at a speed of 180 km/h, also delivers dynamic performance. The ID.7

power of 135 kW (standard) for quick charging stops. Balanced sporty running gear: Drive system and running gear with extensively connected control systems for comfortable tuning. Optional: Progressive steering with regulated DCC running gear or sports running gear. Ecosystem of sustainable mobility: ID. charger, We Charge charging service and the We Connect ID. app create an ecosystem of sustainable mobility. Sustainable electric mobility for all: The ID.5, which is being built at the Zwickau factory in Germany, is handed over to the customer with a carbon-neutral balance sheet. ACCELERATE: The ID.5 is a new model in the ID. family in Europe following on from the best-selling ID.3 and the global car ID.4. With this addition, Volkswagen is speeding up its electric mobility campaign under the ACCELERATE strategy. In brief / the highlights The ID.5 – the elegant new E-SUV coupé from Volkswagen. The ID.5 GTX – the expressive top-of-the-line ID. model with dual-motor all-wheel drive. In brief

footprint.“ Dr. lIenDel CHAnG, HeAD oF enVIronMentAl ProDuCtIon Volkswagen is increasing the use of renewable energy in production with the aim of continuing to reduce its environmental footprint. Since 2010, the brand has reduced its CO₂ generation worldwide by 40.4 percent with its Think Blue. Factory. environmental programme. As part of reducing the environmental impact of production, the factors of energy, water, waste and solvent emissions are being consistently reduced alongside the CO 2 indicator. By 2018, we brought down the consumption of resources at our locations by 30 percent compared with the baseline year of 2010. By 2025, we want to achieve 45 percent. Our vision is the Zero Impact Factory – the footprint of 100 percent carbon-neutral production without any impacts on the environment. In order to achieve this goal, Volkswagen locations in the global production network are systematically exchanging experiences about their specific concepts for success and they are adopting best-practice

Content Creator Days Vehicle Information 50 Years of the Sporty Golf 50 Years of the Sporty Golf The Golf – Europe's most successful car of all time – celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2024. Against this backdrop, Volkswagen Classic presents an unprecedented range of sporty Golf models. For the first time worldwide, all generations of the Golf GTI, Golf R, numerous factory and apprentice studies from the legendary Wörthersee GTI Meeting, and a special selection of motorsport Golf come together in one comprehensive exhibition at the Volkswagen plant in Osnabrück, the former Karmann factory. Simply put, the Golf was designed to be a sporty vehicle from the outset. Its entire technical DNA is built for performance. This journey began 50 years ago with the development of the Golf GTI. In its early stages in 1974, it was decided that the future GTI (debuting in 1976) should be homologated according to the international FIA regulations. And so it was. Sporting icons like the GTI or R models
