Reimagining our iconic models for our electric era.

At Volkswagen, we’re shaping the future of mobility — not just through innovation in technology, but also in how we present our vehicles to the world. That’s why we’re introducing a new naming strategy that brings our most beloved model names into the electric age. Starting in 2026, the ID. family will welcome the ID. Polo, marking the beginning of a new chapter in our naming philosophy.

Combining Worlds for Greater Clarity

As we expand our electric portfolio, our combustion-engine models will continue to carry their existing names. This dual approach ensures clarity for our customers, helping them navigate our product range with ease — whether they’re choosing electric or conventional powertrains.

The ID. designation will continue to stand for cutting-edge technology and sustainable mobility. By pairing it with iconic names like Polo and GTI, we’re creating a bridge between tradition and innovation.

We are bringing one of our strongest brands, the GTI, into the electric world. Also launching in 2026, the ID. GTI Concept⁠ model will go into production as the ID. Polo GTI⁠. It will offer outstanding dynamics and plenty of driving pleasure.

A New Era of Electric Mobility

The ID. Polo and ID. Polo GTI made their global debut at IAA MOBILITY in Munich (8–14 September).

These new models mark the beginning of a new era for Volkswagen. With improved quality, intuitive controls, and a design philosophy shaped by customer feedback, we’re making electric driving more affordable and more desirable than ever before.

Since introducing the ID. family in 2018, we’ve built a strong foundation for our electric future. From the pioneering ID.3 to the spacious ID.7, our electric range continues to grow — and now, it’s evolving to reflect the names our customers know and love.
