Electric wagons are sadly still few and far between in 2023, but Volkswagen is about to address this long-roof EV penury with this – the ID.7 Tourer. Our colleagues at Motor1.com Italy got up close with Wolfsburg's first estate without a combustion engine in Marseille, France ahead of the official release, hence why it's still camouflaged. If you're Italian is a bit rusty, you can auto-generate subtitles in your preferred language.
Sharing the MEB platform with the ID.7 sedan (it's technically a hatchback) and all the other bespoke electric cars from Volkswagen, the zero-emission wagon wants to be the antidote to an SUV world. Being a dedicated EV, it's not related to the new-and-not-for-America Passat Variant or the Arteon Shooting Brake, even though the exterior styling might tempt you to believe it has a connection with the former. The body wrap isn't really hiding anything on this big wagon with its impressively low drag coefficient of just 0.24, almost matching the sedan's 0.23.
