IAA-Premiere des ID. Cross Concept: VW gibt Ausblick auf den elektrischen T-Cross
Der Innenraum ist mit hellen, stoffbezogenen Oberflächen, luftiger Gestaltung, einer optisch freischwebenden Mittelkonsole sowie einem ausgeklügelten Lichtkonzept eine Wohlfühloase.
Zumindest die Studie beherbergt sogar echte Pflanzen unter der Mittelarmlehne.

Overview

  • VW, Škoda and Cupra previewed four entry-level electric models at IAA Mobility, shown as lightly camouflaged cars or studies as the brand shifts from numeric ID. labels to familiar names.
  • The ID. Polo is positioned to start just under €25,000, with a world premiere set for May 2026 and sales planned for autumn 2026.
  • All four sibling models are slated for Spain to hit price targets, with ID. Polo and Cupra Raval at Martorell and ID. Cross and Škoda Epiq at Pamplona.
  • A cheaper model dubbed ID. Every1 around €20,000 is scheduled for 2027 production in Portugal.
  • VW says the push is critical for EU fleet CO2 compliance, citing an 11% EV share in H1 and strong year-on-year BEV growth, while some specs such as ID. Polo GTI output remain provisional.
