Volkswagen revealed the production version of the ID. Cross, a compact electric crossover built for Europe. It works as an EV alternative to the T-Cross: the technology and cabin are shared closely with the ID. Polo hatchback, but the ID. Cross gets its own crossover-shaped body.
The car rides on Volkswagen’s MEB+ platform with front-wheel drive only. Two battery sizes are offered, a 37 kWh pack good for roughly 312 to 316 km of WLTP range and a 52 kWh pack rated up to 427 km, paired with power outputs from 85 kW (116 hp) up to 155 kW (211 hp).
Inside, the ID. Cross follows the same interior direction Volkswagen introduced on the ID. Polo: two screens, physical buttons back on the steering wheel, and separate physical climate controls with rotary dials, moving away from the fully touch-based layouts that drew criticism on earlier ID. models.
Volkswagen expects European sales to start in autumn 2026. German pricing opens at around €28,000, a few thousand euros above the ID. Polo, which makes the ID. Cross Volkswagen’s most affordable electric SUV.
