Volkswagen has confirmed that it will launch a
second all-electric SUV alongside the production-spec I.D. Crozz. Speaking to
company design boss Klaus Bischoff, Auto Express discovered that the second SUV
will be more conventional than the road-going I.D. Crozz and arrive shortly
after, sometime in 2020.
While the production-spec I.D. Crozz will look very
similar to the concept, the second SUV will take inspiration from the T-Roc and
Tiguan and adopt a slightly higher roofline and have more space than its
electric sibling.
Power for this model will come courtesy of a
twin motor set-up with a larger motor at the rear axle and a small unit at the
front. All up, roughly 300 hp is expected alongside a range of about 300 miles.
Before these two SUVs arrive, Volkswagen will make its I.D. hatchback a
production reality. Set to premiere at the same time as the eighth-generation
Golf, the I.D. hatch may retain the 168 hp electric motor of the concept while
offering a range of between 400 to 600 km depending on
specification.
