- The ID. Cross is essentially an SUV version of the electric Polo supermini.
- VW will offer two battery options: 37 kWh and 52 kWh.
- Customers can pick from three power levels: 114 hp, 133 hp, and 208 hp.
It’s been less than a year since Volkswagen previewed the ID. Cross, and now the concept has evolved into a production model. Positioned below the ID.4, the subcompact electric crossover is cut from the same cloth as the new ID. Polo supermini, riding on the same MEB+ platform with a front-wheel-drive layout. It was developed from the ground up as an EV and therefore has no ties to the similarly sized T-Cross powered by combustion engines.
At 163.5 inches (4153 millimeters) long, 77.7 inches (1974 millimeters) wide, and 62.2 inches (1581 millimeters) tall, the ID. Cross slots neatly into Europe’s subcompact segment. Even though it’s a small crossover, nicer versions can be had with wheels as large as 20 inches while the base model gets a 17-inch set as standard. Thanks to the EV underpinnings, VW’s engineers were able to stretch the wheelbase to 102.4 inches (2601 millimeters), or 1.5 inches (38 millimeters) more than the T-Cross.
This is a developing story…
