The GTX's color is more dominant than on the rear-wheel-drive models, and the roof and rear spoiler are black.
In Berlin Tempelhof, where airplanes took off and landed until 2008, new cars are now happily presented. The latest example is the VW ID.4 GTX, the brand's first all-electric high-performance model.
The newcomer is the first model based on the Modular Electrification Toolkit (MEB) to have all-wheel drive with two engines. It also features high-quality design elements.
Ralf Brandstätter, CEO of the Volkswagen brand: "The most emotional member of the ID family to date shows that electromobility and top sporty performance are not mutually exclusive."
From 0 to 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds
The ID.4 GTX has one electric motor each on the rear and front axles. Together, the motors produce 220 kW (299 hp), which they distribute to both axles. At the presentation, the vehicle effortlessly negotiated a ramp with a gradient of 37.5 percent.
Thanks to dual-engine all-wheel drive, the top model in the series accelerates from a standstill to 60 km/h in 3.2 seconds and reaches 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds.
Striking colors and optimized interior
The body color is more dominant than on the rear-wheel drive models, the roof and rear spoiler are black, and the roof frame trim is anthracite. The interior also features a new color concept.
The operating and safety concept of the ID.4 GTX is as intelligent as the powertrain. For example, the driver is supported by the augmented reality head-up display and numerous assistance systems.
A completely climate-neutral Group by 2050
With the GTX product brand, VW also wants to give further impetus to its Accelerate corporate strategy. The goal is to increase the share of pure e-cars in Europe to 70 percent by 2030, and VW wants to become completely climate-neutral by 2050.
