Germany - The I.D. Vizzion supports the Volkswagen claim for future individual mobility. Its electric drive system makes the car clean in road traffic, and its automatic driving control will make it safe and much more comfortable.
Inside the I.D. Vizzion, a completely new feeling of driving and living is created without a steering wheel or visible controls.
VW's next step
The largest model and innovative product campaign in the history of Volkswagen is entering its next stage.
After presenting the first all-electric vehicles of the new I.D. Family models, the Volkswagen brand is now showing, for the first time, a concept of an autonomously driving automobile. Volkswagen is currently advancing the development of modern vehicles in all areas.
By 2025, the brand plans to introduce more than 20 electric vehicle models. Starting in 2020, the I.D will launch as an electric car in the compact class; this will be followed, at short intervals, by a new electric SUV – the I.D. Crozz – and the I.D. Buzz which is a spacious sedan.

Inside the I.D. Vizzion, engineers have systematically exploited the potentials of autonomous driving. The ‘digital chauffeur' with its many assistance systems assumes control of the vehicle – without a steering wheel or visible controls. For the ‘driver' and passengers this signifies a new dimension of safety and comfort.
The concept car drives, steers and navigates autonomously in traffic, enabling passengers to freely structure their time during the drive. A virtual host, with which passengers communicate via voice and gesture control, knows the personal preferences of the vehicle guests – thanks to complete embedding into the digital eco-system – and it adapts to each of them individually.
The system power of the 5.11metre long I.D. Vizzion is 225kW. Its top speed is 180 km/h. The 111 kWh lithium-ion batteries enable a driving range of up to 665km when braking regeneration is factored in. Based on its intelligent management, the two electric motors cooperate with maximum efficiency and drive all four wheels of the saloon.
