Description:
Volkswagen has officially revealed almost all key details about the VW ID. Polo, launching in 2026. In this video, I break down pricing, pre-order date, batteries, range, charging speeds, motors, interior, comfort, driving assists and delivery timeline.

The ID. Polo is the first VW based on the new MEB+ platform, featuring a front-wheel-drive electric motor, improved efficiency, more interior space than the ICE Polo, and a starting price of around €25,000.

πŸ”‹ Key highlights in this video:
Pre-order start: End of April 2026
Battery options: 37 kWh LFP (β‰ˆ300 km) & 52 kWh NMC (β‰ˆ450 km WLTP)
DC fast charging: 90 kW / 130 kW
New A290 electric motor
Power levels: 85 kW, 99 kW, 155 kW + GTI with 166 kW
Spacious interior & 435 L trunk
New β€œPure Positive” interior design
Physical buttons are back πŸ™Œ
13" infotainment + 10.25" digital cockpit
New ID.Light, retro cockpit views, Harman Kardon sound system
New suspension & braking system with strong regeneration
New Travel Assist with traffic light & stop sign recognition
Market launch expected Fall 2026

Volkswagen says it’s mainly a city and country-road car β€” I think it can still work for longer trips.
For me, this could honestly be my next personal EV.
