Ford Electric SUV Based On VW's MEB Platform Debuts March 21

More than just a simple case of rebadging, the Blue Oval has announced it'll introduce its MEB-based electric crossover on March 21. A new tweet from Ford Model e Europe general manager Martin Sander shows Ford of Europe Director of Design Amko Leenarts providing a sneak preview of the vehicle. It's currently known by its generic "Medium-size Crossover" moniker and will be assembled in Cologne, Germany.

Lest we forget Ford has also announced plans for a "Sport Crossover." Logic tells us that these two models will serve as equivalent versions of the ID.4 and ID.5, respectively. Car paparazzi have only spotted the former so far, featuring boxy styling by largely doing away with the curvy lines of the ID.4. The spy shots have suggested the overall appearance will be vastly different compared to the VW model assembled in Zwickau, Emden, Chattanooga, and at a couple of factories in China.
