VW ID.Polo

The VW ID.Polo brings classic Polo sensibility to the EV age with a calm, refined ride, an unusually large boot, and refreshingly simple controls with real buttons. It favors easygoing efficiency and family-friendly practicality over playful handling or high-speed autobahn pace, and the smaller-battery versions ask for a bit more planning on long trips.
