The Volkswagen Group has shared design sketches for three electric vehicles it will unveil in about three years. These will be affordable electric vehicles that will be a direct replacement for the VW e-up!, Skoda Citigo-e iV and SEAT Mii Electric . These cars will be assembled in Spain.
Message from the editor: Our defenders from the 3rd separate battalion of the UDA, who are in the Zaporozhye region, need things to resist the enemy: quadrocopters and smartphones to control them, night vision sights. Details for transferring funds to a monobank card – Katerina Kolonovich, card number 5375411505235312. Please join the fundraising. Glory to Ukraine!
You may notice that the VW car is different from previous versions of the ID. It has less angular shapes than the Life concept shown in September 2021. There were rumors that the entry-level electric car would be completely redesigned and it looks like they were accurate.
The Cupra teaser cannot be called a novelty, the sketch has already been shown in 2021. The electric car is similar to the UrbanRebel concept that debuted last year. However, don’t expect the same aggressive styling as the production version will be toned down. It is possible that a hotter modification is in development, but it is unlikely that it will have a 429 horsepower engine like the concept.
The Skoda electric car sketch looks the most practical among the images shown. It has a square shape, which will provide more space in the cabin for passengers and their cargo. Large wheel arches suggest it will have crossover features.
All of these electric vehicles will be based on the new MEB Small platform. It provides for the use of one electric motor for the front drive wheels. Current electric vehicles based on the MEB platform are rear-wheel drive, although some versions offer an optional front-wheel drive to allow for all-wheel drive. The VW Group has already said that the new wave of electric vehicles will be offered at prices starting at €20,000, with top-of-the-line equipment reaching around €25,000.
