The Volkswagen ID. GTI concept EV is filled to the brim with technology that could change not only everyday driving but racing as well. Here’s what we know.
Earlier in March, Volkswagen unveiled its $27,000 ID.2all electric concept car expected to launch in 2025. With a higher price tag than the ID.1, this EV houses a smaller version of the MEB electric platform modular, giving it a power output of 166 kilowatts, 223 horsepower, and a range of 280 miles, allowing it to travel significantly further than the ID.4. It’s also not slow, as its electric engine lets it hit 0-62 mph in seven seconds. But for some, a sport model of the ID.2all was what they were really looking for.
We finally got our first look at this new Golf GTI based on the ID.2all design, and it’s replacing the “I” in Grand Touring Injection with Intelligence. Coming in at 161.6 inches in length, a width of 72.4 inches, a height of 59 inches, and a wheelbase of 102.4 inches, this EV doesn’t stray too far from the original GTI launched 48 years ago. However, this vehicle offers state-of-the-art tech and a myriad of various features that separate it from its contemporary.A sporty exterior
Upon first glance, this car is unmistakable as a GTI.
