Two separate versions will be shown at the Shanghai Auto Show.
Volkswagen has just released two image teasers of its upcoming all-electric ID.6 model that will have its official world premiere at the Shanghai Auto Show in about a week.
The ID.6 is an MEB-based 7-seat model that, at least for now, will be available only in China. It will be produced in China by two separate joint ventures (just like in the case of ID.4):
- ID.6 CROZZ by the FAW-Volkswagen
- ID.6 X by the SAIC Volkswagen
We have already seen the images from the official MIIT documents, shown by Chinese media, so the new teasers do not reveal much:
The market launch in the U.S. is “conceivable” so maybe we will see ID.6 also outside of China.
We guess that at some point Volkswagen will introduce some large 7-seat BEV in the U.S. anyway, regardless of whether it will be ID.6 or something else.
