Volkswagen, known for using real model names, may switch back to traditional names for some future electric vehicles, abandoning the current ID naming convention.
A VW board member mentioned that upcoming ID models could have 'proper names again' and this change might benefit American buyers in the future.
While Volkswagen has used the ID name for its safety equipment like ID Drive, the company is considering moving away from the confusing naming convention for vehicles.
Current VW electric models like ID.4 and ID. Buzz are likely to keep their names, but future electrified versions of the Golf could feature more traditional badges, simplifying the lineup but potentially causing short-term confusion.
