Best EV Car – New Electric Car Reviews

1. Translation:

   > At the Annual General Meeting in Berlin, Porsche CEO Oliver Blume, who is responsible for production on the Group’s Executive Board, now minced no words – and spoke openly about the ID.2. At the same time, he countered rumors that the small car could be built outside Europe for cost reasons. “That is not correct,” Blume said. “The vehicle is still intended for production in Europe in the current planning round.” Previous indications are that it will be built at Seat in Spain, along with its Cupra sister model Urban Rebel.

   > To tide it over until the launch of the ID.2, VW is now leaving the previous entry-level E-Up in the lineup longer. **”The E-Up will continue to be built for another two and a half years,”** announced Hildegard Wortmann, member of the Board of Management responsible for Sales. “The end of production is planned for the end of 2025.” The ID.2 could then take over seamlessly, she said. The E-Up, launched in November 2013, would then come to a production period of twelve years, which is unusually long for VW.

   > It could then even be followed by an even smaller sister model to the ID.2, the ID.1. That, Blume said, is at least under intensive consideration. “The vehicle is currently still a product idea,” he said in response to a shareholder’s question about the ID.1, adding that the idea is currently being discussed intensively. “But there is no decision on it yet.”

2. Will ID.1 be a proper car or something more similar to a Citroen Ami or Microlino?

3. The ID.2 seems bigger that the Up, from the few dark pictures that are circulating, something equivalent to the Polo. I do hope that the ID.1 will look more like the Up than like the pictured prototype
