Volkswagen will reveal a new concept next month, announcing an electric car for around 20,000 euros that will replace the up model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new entry-level model, which will be unveiled early next month, is expected to go into production in 2027 and its base price will be \u201caround 20,000 euros,\u201d Volkswagen said. This will certainly please those who have been waiting for a cheap and accessible electric car for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new successor to the up, known as the ID 1, is expected to share its basic platform with the ID 2, but technical details have not yet been confirmed. The first preview image shows the car to be quite rounded and not afraid of more chunky dimensions. The distinctive new look will include Volkswagen's new LED light signatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volkswagen CEO Thomas Sch\u00e4fer called the presentation of the new car a key moment for the company. \u201cAffordable, high-quality and profitable electric Volkswagen from Europe for Europe \u2013 that\u2019s the Champions League of automotive technology!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It has not yet been confirmed whether Volkswagen will build the ID 1 in Spain alongside the ID 2 and its sibling, the "ID 2 X" crossover, the compact EPIQ SUV and the sportier CUPRA Raval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volkswagen's Head of Technical Development Kai Gr\u00fcnitz said before the announcement that the new entry-level model will be a clear successor to the popular up car in terms of design. It will share some design elements and features with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe ID 1 will be close to the up in terms of how the car is used,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen it comes to the look of the car, there aren\u2019t many options for designing a small city car. It will be a car that matches the Volkswagen brand DNA, but at a lower price.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gr\u00fcnitz did not confirm the return of the up brand, which was discontinued in 2023, but Volkswagen has shown that it respects its famous names. The Golf, Passat, Tiguan, for example, have survived into the era of electric cars, so there is a possibility that the up will return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gr\u00fcnitz stressed how important it is for such a car to appear on the market. "You need a smaller car that is affordable for a wider range of customers. That's why the ID 2all will be available for around 25,000 euros, and we have invested in the development phase for a vehicle under 20,000 euros. That's Volkswagen."<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
