Update aus Wolfsburg: Auto neu, Name alt: VW ID.4 soll als ID.Tiguan durchstarten

Volkswagen has refreshed its ID.4 electric SUV, giving it a return to a previous name. According to the manufacturer, the electric off-road vehicle will launch as the ID.Tiguan in early 2027 at dealerships. The company has not disclosed pricing, but the current ID.4 starts at 40,580 euros. The update includes an updated exterior design and an entirely new interior cockpit featuring updated digital displays, including for the front passenger, magnetic smartphone charging points, and enhanced comfort and safety features.

Additionally, Volkswagen is introducing a front trunk that can accommodate the charging cable. The ID.Tiguan will offer energy for a range of up to 600 kilometers, either with rear or front-wheel drive in three variants with power outputs of 140 kW/190 PS, 210 kW/286 PS, or 220 kW/299 PS for top speeds of 160 or 180 km/h. The batteries will have capacities of 58 or 77 kWh and can be charged at 11 kW for AC charging and 105 or 165 kW for DC charging, providing normal ranges of up to 600 kilometers.

While Volkswagen markets the ID.Tiguan as completely new and ready for the future, it still looks back at the past with digital instruments reminiscent of the Golf IV or VW Beetle.
