Volkswagen has always been inseparable from the title of "people's car" in the memory of Chinese people. Today, the world and the entire automobile industry are facing the big goal of "sustainable development". Volkswagen will once again assume the important task of promoting the "people's car" to become intelligent and electrified. ID.AERO is a major product in the face of today's consumption reform and demand reform. Compared with SUV models, the Volkswagen brand's sedan products have a more profound impression on us. From Santana , Jetta to Passat , each product records an era in the Chinese automobile market. ID.AERO will be in The global market has created the next era of pure electric "national cars" belonging to the public.

"AERO" literally translates to "streamline" in Chinese. As its name suggests, the ID. AERO car pays more attention to aerodynamic design in appearance than previous ID. family SUV models. It adopts a coupe-style fastback shape, with a wide The body not only creates a young and fashionable sports atmosphere, but also reduces its drag coefficient to 0.23Cd, which has a substantial effect on improving battery life. The eye-catching headlights on both sides are like the finishing touch, giving the whole vehicle charm, and shine brightly with the three-section light strip below.

The side of the car is the essence of the "AERO" (streamlined) name. We can't see the flat straight lines of Volkswagen's internal combustion engine products. The elegant curves and soft surfaces echo each other, making the body look sporty but not frivolous and luxurious. Without losing composure. The 22-inch swirl-style two-color wheels make the vehicle's posture more coordinated, and paired with a coupe-style fastback, elegance and sportiness are no longer opposites, but harmonious and unified.

ID. The rear of the AERO also follows a simple and stylish design. The fastback roof extends to the top of the trunk to form a duck tail design, making the slightly wide body more agile. The taillights also adopt a through-type design, with the "VW" brand LOGO that can illuminate in the middle, echoing the front face.

AERO also marks that the product lineup of the ID. family will expand to the pure electric mid-size sedan market segment. We believe that the word "flexible" will also be used in this model. It is better reflected on the sedan. Thanks to the potential of the MEB platform to develop electric products, ID. AERO's battery life and power advantages will also be further released. The maximum cruising range can reach 620 kilometers under WLTP standards. At the same time, the coupe body will also expand the dynamic driving capabilities of MEB platform models. Performance, as well as a new digital Internet experience, can achieve a richer and more convenient Internet experience.
