Volkswagen’s electric vehicle offensive continues as the company has confirmed the production version of the ID. CROZZ concept will be called ID.4. That’s hardly a surprise, but the company released new photos showing the crossover is virtually production ready.

Lightly covered in a blue wrap, the ID.4 has a rugged appearance as it features a plastic body cladding and faux skid plates. The front end also sports a fully enclosed grille, LED-infused headlights and prominent air intakes.


Moving further back, we can see flowing body work and a rakish windscreen. The model also has streamlined door handles, a sloping roof and a relatively small rear window. Other highlights include a full width taillights and a tailgate-mounted spoiler.

Volkswagen is keeping full details under wraps, but they confirmed the ID.4 will be launched in Europe later this year. Unlike the ID.3, the ID.4 will be a global vehicle that is produced and sold in Europe, China and North America.


Speaking of North America, Volkswagen has already confirmed the ID.4 will be built at their plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee starting in 2022. In order to gear up for production, the company is investing US$ 800 (£ 627 / € 718) million to expand the plant’s body shop and build a new facility for assembling battery packs.

The ID.4 will ride on the MEB platform and be launched with rear-wheel drive. A more powerful all-wheel drive variant will arrive later and it is slated to have two electric motors. Volkswagen was coy on performance specifications, but confirmed one of the variants will have a range of up to 500 km according to the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure.
