VW wants to sell 1 million electric cars annually by 2025
- The BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) I.D. concept that was exposed by Volkswagen at the Paris 2016 Motorshow foreshadows a model which should be sold by 2020. The I.D. concept is a four-door B-segment sedan whose length is 4,10m (i.e. 2cm more than a Renault Zoe), based on a new modular platform of the VW group (called SEM) to be used for all BEVs of the group.
- Volkswagen announces a goal of one million BEVs sold per year by 2025, nearly 10% of total group sales across all models. The BEV derived from the I.D. concept will be the first member of a family composed of sedans of each segment, SUVs, and MPVs, sharing the same technical elements.
- Volkswagen plans various battery capacities for each future models, in order to develop an autonomy from 400km to 600km depending on the model. Renault exhibited at the Paris Motor Show 2016 a new version of the Zoe already displaying a 400km autonomy measured on NDEC cycles (to compare to 200km at the Zoe launch in 2012). The real autonomy in real driving of the new Zoe is certainly less than the 400 km measured on the standard test (probably 300 km instead of 400km) but this autonomy should be sufficient for many uses.
- The road will be long for VW to reach its goal of one million 100% BEVs sold per year as soon as 2025.
Volkswagen has sold indeed only 40,000 BEVs since 2010. It will sell 20 000 BEVs in 2016, while Renault-Nissan sold more than 300,000 BEVs since 2010 and will sell 80,000 in 2016.
