Volkswagen Unveils the Electric ID. GTI Concept at the Munich Motor Show

The Munich Motor Show recently showcased some intriguing electric vehicles, including the Volkswagen ID. GTI Concept, inspired by the ID. 2all.

Sporting subtle black trims around its headlights with a touch of red highlights reminiscent of older GTI models, this concept car has a refined appearance. It features a honeycomb mesh grille and a set of LED fog lights. Additionally, the ID. GTI introduces striped graphics, a modest black spoiler, and slightly tinted taillights, all resting on 20-inch wheels.

Slightly smaller than the traditional gas-fueled Golf GTI, the ID. GTI's size is similar to the VW Polo GTI. Although its cargo space is a tad smaller than the Golf GTI, it offers a bit more overall space, thanks to its slightly taller design.

The interior is comfortable, featuring tartan sport seats with a small GTI emblem and a golf-ball-inspired drive mode selector. Its steering wheel design is a bit sportier, and it includes a 10.9-inch instrument cluster. Notably, there's mention of an augmented reality head-up display.

While Volkswagen hasn't provided extensive details about the powertrain, it's known that the ID. GTI will have a front-wheel-drive system and might be slightly more powerful than the ID. 2all. The battery placement is confirmed to be on the floor, but its exact capacity is yet to be disclosed.

The production of the ID. GTI is confirmed, but when and where it will be available remains a question. With the ID. 2all's starting price being below $30,000, there's hope that the ID. GTI will be reasonably priced.
