Despite several new EV models facing delays, Volkswagen’s cheapest model yet, the ID.2, is still on track to launch. The company confirmed the entry-level EV will launch as early as late 2025, marking a new “starting point” for the German auto giant.
Volkswagen unveiled the ID.2all concept last March, a new entry-level EV that will start under $27,000 (€25,000).
Thomas Shafer, CEO of Volkswagen Passenger Cars, claimed the ID.2 “shows where we want to take the brand” with advanced tech and “fantastic design.” He wasn’t kidding.
At the LA Auto Show this week, VW’s tech development boss, Kai Grünitz, confirmed to Autocar that the brand’s “ID” electric car lineup is due for a drastic overhaul. Grünitz hinted that “huge improvements” are coming, starting in 2026, with a new style.
