  • Renault offers small sub 30k evs since 2013, just like vw, Renault Zoe and VW e-up! (later seat and skoda versions exist too). The VW is even smaller then the Zoe.

    Btw, when was the collapse of the SUV market? The first development stage shown of the ID. Polo was the ID. Life in 2021, 2023 shown again as ID. 2 all and now ID. Polo. The development must have started at least in 2020 and at least I haven’t heard of a big SUV market collapse back then and it wasn’t visible in the streets…


  • ah. volkswagen, the company that ditched projects like the id-2 - an affordable car, to build crossover suv’s for short term earnings until the market got saturated.

    That’s simply not true. They didn’t ditch the ID. 2, they renamed it ID.Polo, a well known name that existed for 50 Years now. That simply makes sense to use the known name. I’m pretty sure the next ID.3 will be called ID.Golf as well. Yes, there’s the the ID.Cross too, but it’s on the same “MEB Entry” platform the ID. Polo uses as well. That’s just another exterior for the car, just like the T-Cross and Polo, ID.3 and Cupra Born, ID.4 and Skoda Enyaq, Golf and T-Roc etc.



  • The chancellor and deputy chancellor — as well as the ministers for finance, the interior, defense and health — were all excluded from the study. The reason for this is that these vehicles are all armored, meaning that they are sure to be much heavier than standard models and therefore less energy efficient.

    I thought this would be the reason to the headline, but nope. By now are usable electric cars for longer distances available, even from German companys: VW ID.7, BMW I7, I5, I4, Mercedes EQS and EQE. And to be honest, I don’t think many of them would even need to charge at all, Germanys Bundesländer aren’t that big (mostly).
