Volkswagen is continuing its electric onslaught by unveiling the fourth model from its ID. family, the ID.5. The car is essentially a “coupé” version of the ID.4 SUV and packages the same technologies and mechanicals …

The influences of the ID.5’s more practical sibling are clear in the trapezoidal headlights, optional front light bar, undulating beltline and full-width taillights. The main difference is of course the roofline that sweeps downwards towards the back of the car, terminating at a new rear spoiler that helps drop the drag coefficient to as low as 0.26.

Despite the low-slung roofline, the ID.5 only gives away 12 mm of rear headroom to the ID.4 and actually offers a slightly bigger boot at 549 litres. Safety-wise, the ID.5 benefits from cloud-based Travel Assist Level 2 semi-autonomous driving capability, automated lane changes and an upgraded Park Assist Plus system that enables the car to park itself in a specific spot from memory.

Charging times have not been quoted but the ID.5 is capable of accepting up to 11 kW of AC power and up to 135 kW using a DC fast charger. The ID.5 and ID.5 GTX will be built at a carbon-neutral plant in Zwickau and will go on sale in Europe next year.
