Volkswagen’s new ID GTI concept car, a revolutionary all-electric performance hatchback, has sparked discussions about its potential entry into the U.S. market. CEO Pablo Di Si believes the electric Golf has a chance in the U.S. if the automaker can maintain an affordable price point, ideally around $25,000.
The ID GTI concept, based on the MEB platform with front-wheel drive, is set to receive a production version, likely debuting around 2026. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Golf GTI models of the past, the concept boasts an onboard Vehicle Dynamics Manager computer, allowing for customizable driving experiences reminiscent of historic GTI models.
