ID.4 GTX - combined power consumption in kWh/100 km (NEDC): 16.3, CO2 emissions in g/km: 0; efficiency class: A+.
Head meets Heart – ID.4 GTX
SUVs are booming. Their drivers love the sense of space and the sporting driving pleasure. But is it still in keeping with the times in light of the impending climate disaster? Frank Bekemeier, Chief Technology Officer for Electric Mobility at Volkswagen, and Jens Obernolte, Head of Energy and Weight Management, explain how the ID.4 GTX reconciles environmental awareness and driving pleasure. Mr Obernolte, a climate-friendly SUV – isn't that a contradiction in terms? Obernolte: No, quite the opposite! At least not when you do it like we do: the ID.4 GTX is an all-electric SUV that doesn't emit any exhaust fumes but offers plenty of performance. So you can drive around in a sporty, highly-efficient four-wheel drive with a clear conscience. Our customers can also have the driving experience and comfort of an SUV that many people aren't willing to forego. And why should they? What makes driving pleasure so special in the ID.4 GTX? Obernolte: The great fascination of the ID.4 GTX is the silent power of the engine. When you put your foot down on the right-hand pedal, you push up to 220 kW(((Maximum electric performance 220 kW: According to maximum performance determined by UN-GTR.21, which can be called for a maximum of 30 seconds. The power available in individual driving situations depends on variable factors such as ambient temperature, temperature, battery status and conditioning state or physical ageing of the high-voltage battery. The availability of the maximum performance requires the temperature of the high-voltage battery to be between 23 and 50°C and a battery status of > 88%. Deviations in the
Red represents performance
Red is a popular colour for sporty top models. And now the ID.41 GTX is a vibrant new addition. Color & Trim Designer Mareike Hackbarth explains why red paintwork is such a good fit for Volkswagen models with power and performance. Mareike Hackbarth is delighted as she enters the studio. "I finally get to see the finished version of the car," she says with a radiant smile as she walks around the ID.4 GTX. She strokes the shiny red paintwork. "How beautiful. The GTX looks really great as a full package." The designer spent three years working on the car, and this is the first time she has seen the new member of the ID. family in real life. She comes from the world of colours and paintwork. In Volkswagen Design Color & Trim, as part of the MEB team she is responsible for the exterior colours of the all-electric ID. family, where she works on colour concepts, researching trends and futurology. Mareike Hackbarth has brought various work materials with her to the interview and unpacks them: painted sample metal panels, replica models, colour cards, bottles of colour – boxes of red. After all, that is what today is all about. The colour that attracts the most attention and triggers the most emotions. And that has a long, very athletic tradition at Volkswagen: the colour red. The list of shades of red at Volkswagen is long. The first shade of red was Coral Red in 1956, and more followed - usually with enticing names such as Bahia Red, Flash Red, Mars Red, Tornado Red or Salsa Red, and now Kings Red … Why has red been part of the range for so long? When buying a car, after manufacturer and model, the colour is generally the most important deciding factor. The colour red is very expressive. Red is in motion and very dynamic. So, red
"GTX has the potential to be synonymous with sporty e-mobility"
Jürgen Gietl is Managing Partner at Brand Trust, a consultancy firm that specialises in the positioning of brands. He is an author of books, a lecturer at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, and is regarded as one of the most experienced experts in the field of technology brands in the German-speaking region. In an interview, he discusses GTX, the Volkswagen ID. family's new performance brand. Why do you attach so much importance to brands – should good products not be able to impress on their own? Strong products form the basis for commercial success. Nevertheless, brands fulfil important standalone functions: brands provide consumers with orientation. They help them to find the most suitable product from a wide selection. This is becoming increasingly important, because there are more and more providers on many markets. Brands ensure recognisability, stability and trust. These are properties that we also value in people. Brands allow us to build an emotional relationship with good products. With the ID.4 GTX, Volkswagen is introducing a new product brand for performance-oriented e-mobility. A good decision? Yes, it makes sense to create a symbol for the sporty character of a car. In the case of the Golf, this worked superbly with the sporty GTI, GTD and GTE models

The specified fuel consumption and emission data have been determined according to the measurement procedures prescribed by law. Since 1st September 2017, certain new vehicles are already being type-approved according to the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), a more realistic test procedure for measuring fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Starting on September 1st 2018, the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) will be replaced by the WLTP in stages. Owing to the more realistic test conditions, the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions measured according to the WLTP will, in many cases, be higher than those measured according to the NEDC. For further information on the differences between the WLTP and NEDC, please visit www.volkswagen.de/wltp.
We are currently still required by law to state the NEDC figures. In the case of new vehicles which have been type-approved according to the WLTP, the NEDC figures are derived from the WLTP data. It is possible to specify the WLTP figures voluntarily in addition until such time as this is required by law. In cases where the NEDC figures are specified as value ranges, these do not refer to a particular individual vehicle and do not constitute part of the sales offering. They are intended exclusively as a means of comparison between different vehicle types. Additional equipment and accessories (e.g. add-on parts, different tyre formats, etc.) may change the relevant vehicle parameters, such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, and, in conjunction with weather and traffic conditions and individual driving style, may affect fuel consumption, electrical power consumption, CO2 emissions and the performance figures for the vehicle.
Further information on official fuel consumption figures and the official specific CO2 emissions of new passenger cars can be found in the "Guide on the fuel economy, CO2 emissions and power consumption of new passenger car models", which is available free of charge at all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, Germany and at www.dat.de.
