WOLFSBURG: Volkswagen has delivered half a million ID.s a year ahead of schedule, saying this meant they are well accepted by customers globally.

The order bank at Volkswagen remains high, said Imelda Labbé, Board Member for Sales, Marketing and After Sales at Volkswagen.

“We are doing our utmost to deliver the roughly 135,000 ID.s on order to our customers as quickly as possible. However, due to the persistently strained situation as regards the supply of parts we are repeatedly having to adjust production,” said Labbé.

The first ID.3 models were handed over to customers in September 2020.

Volkswagen will only produce electric vehicles in Europe from 2033.

By 2030, all-electric vehicles are already to account for at least 70 percent of Volkswagen’s unit sales in Europe.

In the USA and China, the company is targeting an electric vehicle share of more than 50 percent for the same period.

Norway is the forerunner in electric mobility. The ID.4 topped the registration statistics there in October.

Volkswagen is to launch 10 new electric models by 2026.

“Volkswagen will have the broadest portfolio of electric vehicles in the automotive industry: From the entry-level e-car with a target price of under €25,000 to the new flagship Aero B we will have the right offer in every segment,” said Labbé.

MEB is the backbone of the electric mobility campaign

The modular electric drive matrix (MEB) is a decisive factor in the accelerated boost to the global electric mobility campaign under the brand’s ACCELERATE strategy.

Designed especially for Volkswagen’s electric drive system, this vehicle architecture offers long ranges, plenty of interior space and the possibility for over-the-air software updates. The MEB serves as the technical basis for all the fully-electric and fully-networked vehicles in the ID. family.

Wide range of ID. models thanks to MEB - f.l.t.r.: Volkswagen ID.4 GTX, ID.4, ID.3, ID.5 und ID.5 GTX.
