top 20 upcoming cars 2024-2025
Volkswagen ID7 may have already entered the global EV market, but their cars have yet to make their way to India. The highly anticipated ID.4 has yet to be launched here. However, there are also reports stating that Volkswagen will soon release the ID.7 in India.
While some think that the ID.7 is just a slightly bigger version of the ID.4, that could not be further from the truth. The ID.7 is a practical sedan with ample space, intuitive tech, and useful features, providing a high degree of comfort to the driver and passengers.
Volkswagen ID7: Aerodynamic Design
The Volkswagen ID7 has a sophisticated and aerodynamic design that may not be sporty but is certainly eye-catching. It has a similar profile to the Volkswagen Arteon, with fewer chrome details. It also features a nondescript air inlet as opposed to the Arteon’s prominent grille.
The ID.7 has an aerodynamically designed front face housing slim wrap-around LED headlights connected to a thin and sleek illuminated LED strip and the Volkswagen logo in the centre. The connected LED light bar has been a recent design trend in VW cars. It also has an electrochromatic glass roof, which can go from transparent to opaque with the push of a button!
A 500 liter luggage compartment means you have the space to store all the essentials and then some. The longer wheelbase means additional legroom and cabin space.
The Volkswagen ID.7: Premium Interiors
The Volkswagen ID.7 has a cabin that’s both practical and luxurious. Different materials and textures are used, which give it an interesting appearance.
A 15-inch infotainment system display houses most of the controls, and a direct access bar above it to quickly access important functions. Below this display are the main climate controls, so you don’t have to scroll for them as you drive.
Tech Features For Added Convenience
A small screen displays driver-related information, while an augmented reality heads-up display shows additional information. The all-electric fastback also offers IDA: a voice assistant with ChatGPT integration. The assistant can help with navigation, music controls, and much more.
The Volkswagen ID.7 features Volkswagen’s most advanced air conditioning system, which also supports voice commands. Saying ‘My hands are warm’ will make the smart air vents direct cold air towards your hands. The AC vents are seamlessly integrated into the dashboard. Along with climate control, the Volkswagen ID.7 gets heated and ventilated seats as well as an optional add-on massage function.
Battery and Motor
The Volkswagen ID.7 will be available in both electric range and automatic transmission configurations.

Both are rear wheel drive (RWD) and generate 286 hp and 545Nm of torque.
The Volkswagen ID.7 claims a range of 621 km.
