The all-new Volkswagen ID.5 GTX was unveiled ahead of its presentation at the Munich Motor Show in September.
It is very similar to the new ID.4 GTX, but has a sportier, coupe-like look. Here’s all you need to know.
Volkswagen ID.5 GTX style
The photos show the car fully camouflaged, but the overall appearance of the car is not surprising. On the front it looks identical to the ID.4 SUV with IQ matrix LED headlights and a light strip including the VW badge.
Beside, however, things are quite different. It gets a sloped roofline which makes the car look more coupe-like than the ID.4. VW says the A-pillars (the pieces in front of the windshield) were designed to give the roofline an “elegant flow”.
At the rear there are a number of horizontal lines and styling cues that aim to “accentuate” the width of the car. There are also LED tail lights with 3D design, which are aimed at giving the car a luxury appeal.
The GTX will be the sportiest model in the ID.5 lineup and as such will likely have larger alloy rims, different trims and a range of unique color options. We’ll bring you full specs on this when they’re revealed.
Interior and technology of the Volkswagen ID.5
It’s likely that the ID.5 GTX uses the same advanced technology and cockpit layout as the ID.3 and ID.4, although we haven’t seen any official images yet (the one above is ID. 4 GTX).
If so, you’ll find a driver-facing 10-inch infotainment system and digital instrumentation display.
As the GTX, you’ll get a range of sporty stainless steel trim as well, and if it’s like the ID.4 GTX, you’ll get a new steering wheel as well.
Volkswagen ID.5 GTX transmission
The ID.5 GTX will be the most powerful car in the ID.5 lineup, so it will have the same all-wheel drive system and 77 kWh battery as the ID.4 GTX. That should give it a range of around 300 miles and a 0-62mph time of 6.2 seconds.
The suspension will also be lower and stiffer than standard cars, while a sports package and adaptive dampers will also be offered as additional options.
