A GTI at first glance. The red stripe on the front, the typical honeycomb pattern and the standard 19-inch light-alloy wheels pick up on well-known GTI features and reinterpret them. There are also “IQ.LIGHT – LED matrix headlights”, illuminated Volkswagen logos (front and rear), a split roof edge spoiler and the distinctive three letters on the front, rear and side sills. Inside, red contrasting seams, a red 12 o’clock marking on the sports steering wheel and standard-fit top sports seats create a sporty atmosphere. The seat covers transfer the traditional check pattern of earlier GTI models to the present day.
Endurance meets dynamism. The energy for the electric front-wheel drive is supplied by a battery with a net energy capacity of 52 kWh, which enables a WLTP range of up to 431 km. The navigation system includes the e-route planner, which automatically plans necessary charging stops along the route. At DC rapid charging stations, the ID. Polo GTI has a charging capacity of up to 105 kW. Thanks to its constant charging curve, the battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in around 24 minutes.
Digital time travel in the cockpit. The digital cockpit landscape is clearly structured. The 10.25-inch “Digital Cockpit” and the central 12.9-inch infotainment display lie on one visual axis. The “retro display” creates a special connection to the history of the GTI: Graphics in the style of the instruments of a late Golf I are available on request. Even the music playback takes up the lifestyle of the 1980s and represents the current track as a cassette.
