Volkswagen has announced that it will enter the electric mobility space in the Indian market soon. Now, it appears that the company is now preparing a new electric vehicle for the Indian market. A Volkswagen ID 4 GTX electric SUV has recently been spotted unmasked on Indian roads. The fact that the vehicle has been spotted in without camouflage suggests that the brand may soon release the ID 4 in the Indian market.
The VW ID 4 will use the MEB (Modular Electric Drive Matrix) architecture from the manufacturer. The same MEB platform will also support the upcoming Skoda Enyaq iV.

Volkswagen ID 4 - Design
If we discuss the ID 4's design aesthetic, it resembles a typical ICE SUV. The spotted car has a dual-tone colour with Metallic Black colour and piano black roof & pillars. The vehicle's front profile features LED headlights with DRLs built. The ID 4 has a closed grille with a chrome lining. Small vents on the front bumper are there to keep the powertrain cool. Additionally, the vehicle has matte black inserts in place of fog lamps.
The dual-tone diamond-cut alloy wheels on the sides, which appear to be 20 inches, similar to the international spec edition, are a nice touch. The SUV has a coupe-like appearance. It has connected LED taillights and a stoplight located on the spoiler at the back. The centre of the rear bumper has a number plate recess and the bumper is finished in black colour.
The ID 4's interior features an entirely new design language, and the India-spec version is anticipated to have the same. Volkswagen offers the option to modify the interior of the SUV on the international market, and it is anticipated that this will also be available of the Indian-spec version. The international variant's features include multi-function steering wheels, fully digital instrument panels, and three-zone climate control, among other premium features.
