Inovev forecasts 50,000 units per year of the new Volkswagen ID6
- Volkswagen presented at the Shanghai Motor Show 2021, the ID 6, its third BEV based on the MEB platform, after the ID 3 and ID 4, and specially designed for the Chinese market. It is in fact an extended version of the ID 4, which can allow seven passengers instead of five for the ID 4. The total length of the ID 6 is therefore 4.88 m, 30 centimetres longer than ID 4. The width is 1.85m and the height is 1.68m. As it stands, the ID 6 design evoke a mix of minivans and SUVs styles.
- The Volkswagen ID 6 will propose three levels of EV motors power (180 hp, 204 hp and 305 hp) and two battery sizes (58 kWh and 77 kWh), allowing two different ranges (435 km and 588 km). The 305 hp version will be all-wheel drive.
- The new model will be produced in China, both with SAIC (in Anting) and FAW (in Foshang) which have been producing Volkswagen vehicles under license for over twenty years. One will be named ID 6 X and the other ID 6 Crozz. The German brand now holds between 3 and 4% of the Chinese BEV market, and thanks to the arrival of new models, including the ID 6, hope to reach between 12 and 16% of this market within five to ten years. As a reminder, Volkswagen has a 15% share of the Chinese market of thermal cars.
- The German carmaker plans to launch seven different models in China based on the MEB platform by 2023, including ID 3 and ID 4. The ID 5 is expected to appear in 2022, including in Europe. Inovev forecasts 50,000 sales per year of the Volkswagen ID6.
