After the I.D. 3 and I.D. 1, Volkswagen announces the launch of the I.D. 2
- After announcing the upcoming launch of the I.D. 3 (2020) and I.D. 1 (2022), the Volkswagen group announced that its B-segment electric car, i.e. the VW Polo and VW T-Cross segment, could be launched in 2023 on the MEB platform that all future electric models of the Volkswagen group will share.
- This model, which will probably be named I.D. 2, will be the third major part in the Volkswagen group's electric car line-up, enabling it to sell one million electric cars per year between 2025 and 2030, half of them in China and the other half divided between Europe and the United States.
- This new model, which will be in the manufacturer's range between the I.D. 1 (20,000 euros) and the I.D. 3 (40,000 euros) should be manufactured at the German site in Zwickau or at the German site in Emden. Its price could be around 30,000 euros.
- Unlike I.D. 1, the I.D. 2 model should also be manufactured in China, at the Anting or Foshan site, as well as at the Czech site of Mlada Boleslav, which will produce the Skoda and Seat badged versions. These two models are expected to gradually replace the current Skoda Fabia and Seat Ibiza, while being entirely electric.
- The manufacturer has not provided sales targets for these future B-segment models, but given that the Volkswagen branded model will be produced in China, it is likely that the sales volume for all three models will exceed 300,000 units per year.
