The biggest, slipperiest Volkswagen electric sedan, the ID.7 will hit US streets next year - a year after it goes into production for Europe and China. With a claimed 700km of WLTP-tested EV range, the ID.7 will be priced at around $50,000 to fall into the price point of established EV foes like the Polestar 2, the Tesla Model 3 and the BMW i4. While its European range is likely to translate into an EPA figure closer to 350 miles, the ID.7 will still be a big step forward for Volkswagen’s MEB electric-vehicle architecture. Boasting either a 77kWh (net) for the ID.7 Pro or 86kWh (net, in the ID.7 Pro S) lithium-ion battery pack, the ID.7 will use Volkswagen’s first home-developed electric motor, dubbed APP550, which will sit on the rear axle. With 210kW (282hp), the ID.7 will top its little ID.4 brother by just over 80hp and trump it for range by more than 100 miles, helped by a slippery aerodynamic drag figure of - headed in the price point only by the Hyundai Ioniq 6’s 0
