Volkswagen has plans to showcase a close-to-production version of an electric sedan which could be based on the ID. Aero concept. The car will be based on its MEB platform and will launch in the second half of 2023. 

Volkswagen also has its ID.4 and the European version of ID. Buzz van which is to launch soon. During the first nine months of the year, Volkswagen sold 207,200 all-electric cars which was a growth of 23.5 per cent on a year-on-year basis. Many believe that in the next two years, Volkswagen will overtake Tesla as the world’s largest seller of electric vehicles.
