The Volkswagen ID. Xtreme was created by the team of Andreas Reckewerth (Head of overall vehicle MEB) in the Volkswagen Development department. The result of the project is a unique off-road vehicle that impresses with its rugged appearance and power. A high-performance drive on the rear axle and software adaptations in the drive control unit increase the system power of the concept car by 65 kW (87 hp) to 285 kW (382 hp) compared with the ID.4 GTX - in other words, by about 30 percent.

The exterior of the VW ID. Xtreme also shows that the vehicle is ready for every off-road adventure. Raised rally running gear, 18-inch off-road wheels, a modified crash member with additional front bumper, and 50 mm-wider wings manufactured by 3D printing combine to give the concept vehicle an authentic off-road look. The roof carrier with additional LED lights and the completely closed aluminium underbody also equip the fully electric all-wheel drive vehicle for excursions away from paved roads.

The ID. Xtreme has something special to offer: the driving noise was developed together with Volkswagen Design especially for the concept vehicle and is output to the outside via a sound generator in the wheel housing. In the interior, the concept car impresses with various highlights, including numerous Alcantara applications, revamped seats and elements in the accent colour orange. The Concept car comes with an 82 kWh battery, just like the production model.

Volkswagen is presenting the ID. XTREME to the public for the first time at the ID. Treffen in Locarno. The event by and for fans of electric mobility is taking place for the second time this year and could become the green and sustainable event for electric mobility modelled on the GTI meeting at Lake Wörth (Austria). This year, ID. enthusiasts from the whole of Europe are meeting up on the shore of Lago Maggiore from 6 to 10 September to share their experiences with electric mobility.
