Volkswagen is updating its naming strategy for electric models by reverting to proper names, taking a page out of its old playbook. Instead of the “e” suffix previously used on cars like the e-Golf or China’s e-Lavida, Wolfsburg will now use “ID.” Consequently, the 2023 ID.2all concept will launch next year as the ID. Polo. Similarly, the ID. GTI concept will evolve into the ID. Polo GTI production model. Meanwhile, the gasoline-powered Polo will continue unchanged.
