The New Volkswagen ID. Polo GTI: The First Fully Electric GTI

Volkswagen has unveiled the all-new ID. Polo GTI, marking the arrival of the first fully electric GTI in the model's 50-year history.

Combining the performance and driving enjoyment GTI models are known for with Volkswagen's latest electric technology, the ID. Polo GTI delivers 226 PS and accelerates from 0-62 mph in just 6.8 seconds.

Powered by a 52 kWh battery, the new electric GTI offers a WLTP range of up to 263 miles (424 km), making it suitable for both everyday driving and longer journeys. When charging is required, the battery can be replenished from 10% to 80% in around 24 minutes using a compatible DC rapid charger.

GTI Performance, Reimagined

The ID. Polo GTI has been engineered to deliver the dynamic driving experience expected from a GTI. Standard equipment includes:

  • Adaptive DCC sports suspension
  • Electronic front differential lock
  • Progressive steering
  • 19-inch alloy wheels
  • Premium sports seats
  • IQ.LIGHT LED matrix headlights

Drivers can also activate a dedicated GTI driving profile, sharpening the vehicle's performance characteristics while introducing exclusive GTI-themed displays within the cockpit.

Distinctive GTI Styling

The new model remains instantly recognisable as a GTI, featuring signature red styling elements, an illuminated Volkswagen badge, sporty design details and exclusive GTI touches throughout.

Inside, the cabin combines modern technology with classic GTI inspiration. Red accents, sports seats and a contemporary interpretation of the iconic tartan upholstery pay tribute to previous generations of GTI models.

Everyday Practicality

Despite its sporty character, the ID. Polo GTI remains practical for everyday life. The spacious interior provides increased passenger room, while the luggage compartment offers up to 441 litres of storage, expanding to 1,240 litres with the rear seats folded.

Coming Soon

Volkswagen plans to open order books in Europe later this year, with UK pricing and specification details expected to be announced closer to launch.

The ID. Polo GTI represents an exciting new chapter for Volkswagen performance models, bringing the iconic GTI badge into the electric era while combining everyday usability with all-electric performance.
