Just a few days ago, we heard first rumors about the future of the Volkswagen Golf beyond the Golf MK8 and how it could morph into an electric vehicle for its next generation. Nothing is official at this point but we have the first spy photos of an upcoming compact EV from Wolfsburg that is currently testing looking a lot like the ID.3 but featuring a shorter wheelbase.
The situation with VW’s future electric products is a little unclear at the moment. The report from last week claimed the Golf EV will be previewed by an ID.2 concept but there are other rumors saying the ID.2 will instead be launched as a battery-powered Polo replacement. Whatever the case is, we know this new car will probably be the first to ride on Volkswagen’s MEB-Plus platform engineered for front-wheel-drive vehicles but also supporting dual-motor systems.
