Volkswagen Delivers 1.5 Million ID Electric Vehicles in Under Five Years

Volkswagen has delivered its 1.5 millionth fully electric vehicle from the ID. range, marking a significant milestone achieved in under five years since the launch of the ID.3 in 2020. The milestone vehicle, an ID.7 Tourer Pro produced at the Emden plant in Germany, underscores Volkswagen's leadership in electric mobility both in Germany and across Europe. The ID family has expanded to include various models such as the ID.3, ID.4, ID.5, ID. Buzz, and ID.7, with plans to launch more affordable models like the ID.2all in 2026 and the ID. EVERY1 in 2027 to increase accessibility to electric vehicles. Volkswagen's design philosophy for the upcoming ID.1 emphasizes stability, likeability, and a unique design approach to deliver an appealing, budget-friendly electric car priced around €20,000. Investments exceeding €1 billion have been made to convert facilities like Emden into EV hubs, supporting Volkswagen's aim to scale electric vehicle production globally while balancing innovation and heritage. However, Volkswagen continues to experiment with new customer models, such as locking EV horsepower behind subscriptions, reflecting ongoing challenges in the evolving EV market.
