Volkswagen has shown its latest affordable electric prototype, the ID.Every1, a conceptual model that lays the foundations for what the future will be like ID.1This urban vehicle will be positioned as the entry model to the German manufacturer's electric range and its arrival on the market is scheduled for 2027, with a price that will be around 20.000 EurosWith the ID.Every1, Volkswagen seeks to offer an affordable option within its family of electric vehicles, a segment in which it will compete with models such as the Renault 5 or Citroen ë-C3.
The brand claims that it is a car designed for the city, with a compact but spacious design, advanced technology and a platform that will allow digital updates throughout its useful life. In addition, its launch takes place in a context where other brands are also offering affordable electric models, such as the Microlino Lite, which demonstrates the growing trend towards sustainable mobility.
A compact and functional design…
The ID.Every1 features a design that is halfway between the old Volkswagen Up! and the current Volkswagen PoloIts dimensions reflect this position, with a longitud of 3,88 meters a width of 1,82 meters and a Height of 1,49 meters. All this gives it a balanced appearance, with short overhangs that reinforce their urban presence.
One of the most distinctive aspects of the model is its “Flying Roof Concept”, a design system that lowers the roof surface in the central part without sacrificing height in the interior. At the rear, the inclusion of a Third brake light integrated into the roof and floating aerodynamic elements help improve its energy efficiency. This approach is in line with the trend of some electric models that seek to maximize aerodynamic efficiency, such as the Wuling Sunshine EV.
Another striking detail of the new ID.Every1 is its front, where some LED headlights with a stylish design and a distinctive grille that gives it a friendly expression. In addition, the front and rear light signature allows for the creation of welcome and farewell animations when the driver approaches or moves away from the vehicle.
A spacious and digitalized interior…
The interior finishes are based on recycled materials y warm colors that make the environment more welcoming. The dashboard features a clean and functional design, with a center touch screen for the multimedia system and a series of physical controls to regulate key aspects such as temperature or audio volume. This use of sustainable materials is a significant step within the automotive industry, similar to what is being seen in other electric models from brands such as Fisker.
Despite its compact size, the ID.Every1 offers a cabin designed to make the most of the available space. Its wheelbase 2,539 meters allows four occupants to be accommodated comfortably, while its 305 liter trunk is adequate for a car in this segment.
Volkswagen has also incorporated practical solutions, such as the central console scrollable on rails, which can be adapted to different needs. In addition, the passenger seat and the rear seats can be folded down in a number of ways to improve the versatility of the cabin.
Propulsion system and autonomy…
The Volkswagen ID.Every1 uses the platform MEB front wheel drive, an evolution of the one already used in other electric models of the brand. Its motorization is provided by a 95 hp (70 kW) electric motor, which allows you to achieve a maximum speed of 130 km / h.
As for the battery, Volkswagen has not revealed details about its exact capacity, but has assured that the minimum autonomy according to the WLTP cycle will be 250 kilometers. This data puts it in competition with other urban electric vehicles on the market, ensuring sufficient autonomy for day-to-day use in urban environments. In this sense, it can be compared with models such as the Nissan Leaf, which also offers similar autonomy.
Technology and connectivity…
One of the most innovative aspects of the Volkswagen ID.Every1 is its Software ArchitectureVolkswagen has developed a system that will allow new features to be incorporated throughout the life of the vehicle, similar to what Tesla already offers with its remote updates.
In addition to the usual connectivity in modern cars, it will have mobile device integration y digital customization options that will improve the user experience. It will also carry elements of driving assistance, although details about these systems have not yet been confirmed by the brand. This connectivity strategy is key, especially in a market where digitalization is increasingly important, as seen in the Kia EV Day 2025.
Volkswagen has high expectations for this model, as it will be part of a broader strategy in which they will launch Nine new electric models until 2027. The intention is to offer a more accessible range that is adaptable to the needs of urban drivers, positioning the ID.1 as a competitive option in a rapidly expanding market.
