Volkswagen's 'Electric Urban Car Family' to Revolutionize Affordable EV Market in 2026
Volkswagen group is set to revolutionize the affordable electric car market with its 'Electric Urban Car Family', launching in 2026. This range, priced under €25,000, will include the VW ID.Polo, ID.Cross, Skoda Epiq, and Cupra Raval. Notably, some models will offer all-wheel drive options.
The ID.Cross and Skoda Epiq, both mini SUVs, will benefit from all-wheel drive systems tailored to the new small MEB+ platform. Volkswagen is optimizing compact electric motors and drivetrains for these smaller vehicles, ensuring they are well-equipped for various terrains. Meanwhile, sporty top models like the GTI and R could also see all-wheel drive, likely featuring a dual-motor setup for precise power distribution and enhanced driving dynamics.
Currently, Volkswagen group does not offer any electric cars below €25,000 from its VW, Skoda, or Cupra brands. The 'Electric Urban Car Family' will fill this gap, making electric vehicles more accessible to a broader range of customers.
In 2026, Volkswagen group's 'Electric Urban Car Family' will bring affordable electric cars to the market, with some models offering all-wheel drive. This move is expected to attract more customers to electric vehicles, especially those seeking sporty performance or enhanced traction.
