Volkswagen ID. Code concept | The future of VW's electric models

The Volkswagen ID. Code is a glimpse into the future of the brand’s next generation of cars, with a host of advanced technologies, including Level 4 autonomous driving and a virtual avatar assistant that can help with day-to-day tasks - the ID. Code has been created specifically for the Chinese market, but designers have hinted that its styling could seep into European models, too.

Looks so much better than the current ID models.

[@jasondickens9003]

It’s a great exterior design. Very strong and pronounced

[@alko_xo]

Looks like VW has hired the Designer. Finally.

[@CompletecarIe]

VW is doing good things lately.

[@stealthtyrannus]

It looks great, simplicity is the way to go!

[@krane15]

Says who? Tesla?

[@emersonsuits]

It's crucial for Volkswagen to maintain as many of the concept's distinctive features as possible in the market-ready model. If they can achieve this, it's bound to be a great success!

[@CompletecarIe]

We think you’ll see many of these design elements in forthcoming models

[@colinrenfrew48]

The new head of vow design knows his stuff. He will help save them.

[@sandisz]

As a loyal VW customer I can say - don't be afraid to use more Porsche elements in your futer designs, it’s now time to put all VW group’s magic cards on the table to win this battle with Asian EVs which already have brave designs (even concepts) in use.

[@krane15]

The first Porsche was a VW. But I don't think Porsche today would want their designs going back to its roots. If it makes you feel better, there is a lot of trickle down throughout the group.

[@catha86]

At this point you will only win with brave unique design. Pretty much all cars are so good and so alike. BYD is taking the world with storm and that will only make people realize maybe the Chinese are not that bad.

[@andrelevesque1746]

I think that it looks great. Also, love the colour

[@larspaaske9769]

Brilliant design, this actually makes me think that my next car will be a WV, and maybe also my next stock:)

[@CompletecarIe]

: )

[@kendillinger555]

What a phantastic car❤

[@HenryKing679]

While establish car brands are making concept looking cars,China is making concept design EV into production which makes it more appealing to customers and also more futureristic and of course very cheap for the average consumer to enjoy. VW should put this concept as it is into production and not change anything to look like a normal vw we see on the streets if it wants to gain market share in ev segments as Chinese EV is coming in to EU to dominate.

[@eyaltab]

Best looking car ever!!! Please give it to us fast Love it

[@krane15]

It not enough. Not for North Americans anyway.

[@diegoHernanGuevara]

thank you from Colombia. Excelent CAR...

[@alexgor51]

Сейчас имею id4 и с большой радостью купил бы такой авто как показан в видео. Электро зеркала супер!!! Дизайн-супер. Надеюсь реальность не уйдет далеко от концепта. Сделайте пожалуйста встроенный русский язык для всех рынков продаж!!!

[@PeterMcAviney]

Fabulous design, more of this yes please. Great proportions, great 'stance', a keen eye on the design. Very aesthetically pleasing which some manufactuers seem to think is not important but something that is so simple. The sleek and unfussy design will work on so many different models bigger and smaller. Not so keen on the avatar on the window, can't see the advantage on that at all.

[@nhlanhlahlongwa9798]

Love it❤

[@CompletecarIe]

: )

[@colinpryor5875]

Wow looks great match that with good EV mileage and I think this is a winner

[@CompletecarIe]

Hope so!

[@WayApp]

Dynamic driving character

[@user-sp2ve4xx1r]

Think the car looks great, and it’s obviously a VW that’s clever design, I believe this concept will do well.

[@CompletecarIe]

We think it looks great too

[@nadertounsi411]

The Volkswagen ID. Code concept is a bold leap into the future of electric mobility. With its sleek design and innovative features, it promises to redefine the driving experience while embodying Volkswagen's commitment to sustainability and cutting-edge technology. Here's hoping that the Volkswagen ID. Code concept hits the roads soon, bringing its promise of a greener future at an accessible price point. Can't wait to see it revolutionize the way we drive!

[@Flyingtwiglet]

I love the design inside and out. VW design has always been too conservative, so this is great to see. Not sure I’d want the avatar though, Chinese market I assume. those have always got tiresome super quick, but it’s good to see them trying new things.

[@samsonsuens]

Can take preorder? 😍

[@CompletecarIe]

Not yet!

[@fredericoamigo]

lots of cool things, but the ligthbar in the front just doesnt work for VW. I hope they move away from that design language in the front. otherwise it looks kind of cool.

[@supersaiyajin7987]

Please bring the exact out - design how it stand to Germany. We Love It ❤ The light also very beautiful, but i never need a AI character 😂😂 that scares me as German a lot. In the inside i wish huge changes for Germany.

[@londongoingelectricfan3107]

I’m guessing it could be a future ID8

[@CompletecarIe]

Possibly!

[@stevehunter7402]

invest in stronger suspension components instead of dancing headlights.

[@krane15]

Bingo. And some more power too.

[@fisheye375]

Looks nice. A bit of Avatar 11 in it tho. But it’s a good thing. Don’t understand why it’s a concept tho. By the time it comes out, that design will be outdated…maybe. Chinese cars are too ahead i think. You have to get it out as soon as possible

[@MrMuharbi]

Id like to Trade in my Audi q3

[@antonbanulski1262]

Look like the next gen ID.4

[@user-fd3yg2vr2c]

A desirable VW at last. Now make it.

[@Achillias]

Those concepts never look like the real deal.

[@krane15]

Not true, Stillantis does an excellent job of bring to the sales floor what you see as a concept initially. But I will admit, no other carmaker comes that close.

[@markbennett6658]

The new Renault 5 EV is pretty close to the concept as well.

[@timrothwell33]

The Audi TT was close to the concept

[@stevehunter7402]

Canada needs small affordable cars. golfs and polos. we don’t all drive suv’s.

[@krane15]

That's just you. Canada is not a small car market. The Golf is as small as it gets.

[@oceanfroggie]

PS: As a driver we spend most of our time INSIDE, not outside, so please bring brighter interiors like Merc, BMW, not audi soviet black interiors or dark grey like current ID4.

[@krane15]

Germans: you can get interior in any color you want, so long as its depression military gray. Actually, that's far from unique to the Germans. Toyota loves gray too. Now the Koreans?

[@oceanfroggie]

@@krane15 In north america car interiors tend to be bright light brown or camel cream leather (ie not tesla white). In europe you tend to only get this option with Mercs, BMW, JLR and some Korean cars.

[@fordablesint4573]

This looks great esp For the Asia-China Market .. though I think VW should start looking at Africa inclusion .. the potential and market there can not be over-emphasized.. Qrisco Motors I think has started the groundwork. Offering Smart EVs and Solar Enabled Charging / Hybrid Models. Here is a look at their flagship Model kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZS8mH6AZdR9mc0

[@commonfact9680]

How the ID5 should have been

[@CompletecarIe]

Yes!

[@johnpeers6540]

Till marks all around *****

[@landroverSV]

REAL VW enthusiasts don't care about children's electric toy RC cars! I sure don't, owned numerous VW'S but would never ever buy an electric car! My favorite VW that I owned : 1985 GTI 8V 1997 PASSAT 12V VR6 2001 GTI 12V VR6 2004 R32 24V VR6 these are just my favorite ones! Oh, bring back the awesome music 🎶 from the VR6 as an option plus a 2 door GTI. Not everyone in the States likes 4 doors in Europe they still offer 2 doors. Why not in the states!!

[@krane15]

I care, but hey don't supplant power or performance I've always considered VW to be the affordable performance car. Sadly, the VR6 is no more, and its unlike its coming back. Definitely needed in the Atlas though. Or at least an electric motor.

[@markbennett6658]

I’ve had a 1975 Mk1 Scirocco, 1982 Mk2 Scirocco GTI and a 1991 MK2 Scirocco Scala 1.8i in my time, plus various Audi models. I drive an electric car now and I bloody love it! Just saying…

[@oceanfroggie]

Nice a refreshed ID4 look, but MEB/ID4 has dreadful slow CCS charging speeds, ID4 screeching panoramic roofs, haptic controls a disaster to use reliably, bring back buttons, for heating, hazard lights, steering wheel controls, no battery pre-heat. Only dark interiors dull as ditch water soviet dark grey or black, no bright beige leather interior options.

[@octogonpc]

"For China and Europe". America is being left on the side of the efficient, stylish, high-tech electric vehicle market road. Americans also like style and Technology, ya know. (just saying).

[@CompletecarIe]

But VW will have Scout for the US in the near future.

[@octogonpc]

@@CompletecarIe - That looks huge, and nowhere near as sexy. Thanks for looking out, though.

[@deanfisher4258]

VW has a tendency to tantalize the consumer with innovative and beautiful design ideas, but when it comes to actually putting them into production, they usually strip most of it out. Case in point, the ID Buzz, It had gorgeous features in the concept vehicle, but they really dumbed it down when they put it into production, and for me, it lost most of it’s appeal.

[@CompletecarIe]

Hopefully this is the start of a new design era for VW.

[@as084084]

A copy of the Chinese Avatr 11

[@QuietStormX]

;-D

[@elkano7765]

Looks ok but… those rounded shapes have no connection with VW’s DNA.

[@petrbasa5742]

Volkswagen hasn't changed its mind about the futuristic design yet. They're obviously going for aerodynamics, but it's un-salty, ungainly and I don't see VW in it. Who needs a car that flashes at them like a Christmas tree?! That's not the future for me.

[@drteeth1063]

I think this generation of cars is going to age horribly. I'm already tired of these fat jellybeans with tiny windows, squinting headlights, oversized wheels, thick pillars, low ceilings, big screens with bad software, no buttons and backseat passengers sitting with their knees by their ears! 😆

[@krane15]

Nice body design but that's where all the advantages to this concept ends. This car is chalk full of gimmicks. First, the avatar frightens me (must be a Chinese thing?) Second, door handles. Why are we making things so complicated here? Third, solar roof. Don't want it, don't need it. I want a sunroof that actually opens. That was the whole point of the sunroof in the first place before they were glass. Its that they open, not the glass. Third, the wheels are notoriously ugly. Which is the state of all aero wheels save Tesla. I get it, they're more efficient, but they're still ugly. I'd trade the efficiency for something more aggressive in an instant. I can see that the rear window doesn't go all the way down. My OCD could never accept a car like that. Finally, that tiny rear window. Even though it was. As for the seats, they don't look comfortable at all. I can't imagine sitting it the injection formed plastic shell on an all day cross-country trip. One more thing, VW is notoriously famous for building under-powered vehicles, which will always make them cars with nothing special other than to be different. Hyundai (a much newer company) has already surpassed VW in performance and power the their N division that leaves anything VW makes, look like its dead in the water. The Ioniq 5 N, for example.

[@biggeststeppa1]

Volkswagen could change their name to Uninspired and no one would care. Their concepts consistently look like desperately outdated models from the 2010s

[@milanstokrp9387]

Car without Mask / grill is Like men without mouth! 👎

[@TerbrugZondolop]

Disgusting.

[@CompletecarIe]

Hard to compare this to the Volvo as there is no electric version of the Duster.
