Paris Motorshow 2026: Inovev forecasts 100,000 units of the new VW ID Cross SUV in 2031
- Volkswagen has unveiled the fourth model in its quartet of battery-electric B-segment small cars assembled in Spain at two different plants: Pamplona and Martorell. Following the Cupra Raval, Skoda Epiq, and Volkswagen ID.Polo, comes the Volkswagen ID. Cross, which is essentially the SUV version of the ID. Polo, although it shares no body panels with it. However, the MEB+ platform is common to all four models, as are the electric motor and the LFP and NMC batteries.
- The Volkswagen ID Cross is 4.15 m long, the same length as the Renault 4 E-Tech, its main competitor.
- It will be assembled at the Pamplona plant alongside the internal combustion-engine Volkswagen T-Cross and Taigo, as well as the electric Skoda Epiq, which shares the same philosophy as the ID. Cross, while the Cupra Raval and Volkswagen ID.Polo are assembled at the Martorell plant alongside the Cupra Formentor, Cupra Leon, Seat Leon, Seat Arona, Seat Ibiza with internal combustion engine.
- The Volkswagen Group hopes to sell a total of 400,000 units of its four all-electric small cars by 2030. Inovev believes this goal is only achievable from 2032 onwards. Inovev forecasts 100,000 sales of the Volkswagen ID. Cross in 2031, matching sales of the Volkswagen ID. Polo. The ID. Cross is expected to start at €28,000.
- As a reminder, all four models are available with a choice of a 37 kWh LFP or 52 kWh NMC battery, allowing a range of 316 km or 436 km respectively for the ID Cross.
