Volkswagen ID.6. 2021 to date (prod. n/a). 5-door SUV. R/R, F/R/A, 58, 77, 84·8 kWh electric. Third vehicle in Volkswagen’s EV line-up, this time exclusive to China. ID.6 X made by SAIC in the south and ID.6 Crozz made by FAW in the north, with subtle styling differences between them. C_d at a low 0,28. Seven seats, long wheelbase on the MEB platform, panoramic glass roof. Large 12-inch touchscreen in centre of dashboard. Dual motors for AWD version, with 80 kW in the front and 150 kW at the rear (torque at 162 Nm and 310 Nm respectively). Fast recharge from 30 to 80 per cent in half an hour. Top model with a range of 516 km (NEDC). MacPherson front independent suspension, five-link independent suspension at rear, though still some body roll. Some external noise. Five driving modes; non-sports ones are more leisurely, though still with plenty of torque, arguably needed in a vehicle of 2,280 kg. Fairly long, measuring 4,876 mm, with wheelbase at 2,965 mm. Drum brakes at rear to decrease rolling resistance, and not the best braking as a result. Intelligent voice system, head-up display.
