After more than 20 million units sold, the Polo goes electric. At 4.05 m, the VW ID. Polo remains a compact city car, but offers noticeably more space inside than its combustion-engined predecessor. The front-wheel drive on the new MEB+ platform creates space exactly where it counts in everyday life. At Clyde, you drive it on an electric car subscription, with no purchase contract and no risk of depreciation.
Space where a small car usually doesn't have it: with 441 litres, the boot beats the combustion-engined Polo by around 25%. Fold down the rear seats and you get 1,240 litres – enough for a big shop and more.
Up to 454 km according to WLTP: with a 40 km commute each way, one charge lasts around five days. If you commute further, you'll simply charge a bit more often.
Top up while you grab a coffee: at a fast-charging station, the ID. Polo takes up to 105 kW and charges from 10% to 80% in around 24 minutes.
Buttons you can feel: on the steering wheel and for the climate controls, VW is switching back to physical buttons instead of touch surfaces. You adjust the temperature without taking your eyes off the road.
A power socket on four wheels: the vehicle-to-load function supplies up to 3.6 kW to the outside. That's enough to run a cool box by the lake or a drill on a building site.
