VW, please bring the estate version to North America. I would take this over any SUV!
My man Thomas (and the Autogefühl team) is absolutely on fire this week covering a bunch of VW AG cars. It's always a joy to watch your videos. Cheers from Hungary.
thanks my friend! So many news atm indeed !

Others have said it, but I’ll also add, Volkswagen please bring the station wagon/estate version to North America!
Yes a 'frunk' is important. Best place to keep charging cables. On a road trip when the boot/trunk is full of luggage, the last thing you need is to hunt around for the charging cable.
Kill me if you want, but i realy like the design of it.
i love it too !
Yeah I wish I could afford it as well.
They really pushing the EVs to the customers. Just look at the new passat. They made it look like a dead fish so that ppl would buy the ID7
Front looks good! Though I don’t know about the rear…
Nah bro we chill
Vw taking their EVs very seriously now. Congratulations 🙏
I love the cargo position on the back seats - especially when you have backward facing children seats, then u don't need the comfort of the shallower angle.
Saw the first id7 in our company garage today, man it’s huge
That red and black exterior looks really good on this car. I’m definitely putting this estate on the shortlist for when my Model 3 lease ends.
Its the car color trend right now. All the manufactures are using it.
@@krane15 now that you mention it, I notice it everywhere. That is crazy
OK Thomas, so, you spoil us. Came home from office, wanted to eat, but I saw your Skoda Superb video, so I watched that. My wife came home, and now she said to eat, and I see your ID7 new video. May I today? 😂😂😂
Good job, as always! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I hope you can catch up to all videos =)
I really like the look of this, especially in red. I thought it would be more powerful than that for the money.Yes, it needs a front boot for cables or muddy boots to keep them out of the boot.
I'm sad to say that why it will fail. Its nowhere nearly powerful enough to compete, especially with Tesla. In addition, the competition from Hyundai offers an AWD performance variant with their soon to be released Ionic 6 N (the N is Hyundai's performance division similar to the R from VW, but much more powerful)
VW spreads the ICE R around (in Europe) but has no performance EVs as of yet. So nothing to compete with Hyundai EV N, and nothing planned as far as I know.
Pity since VW got their first with the Golf R but rested on its laurel and ends up overtaken by its competitors. I don't think the majority of the market is looking for a rocket but they do recognize quickness -- due to Tesla -- and have come to expect it from an EV as one of its major selling points.
@krane15 Agreed. The ID7 GTX will be either slower or more expensive than the competition, probably both. Hopefully the Skoda version will be better value.
space vizzion was supposed to come to north america and have a 435 mile range
Nice video Thomas, looking forward for the next angry Cupra Born with 326 HP !
As usual, very good run throughThomas. One question: Is the steering wheel buttons the same as the regular ID.7?
Great videos, Thomas and the team! How are the seats in this GTX version compared to regular ID.7 seats? Is there better side support? I find the regular ID.7 seats a bit wide, good for highway but lacking support for spirited driving.
This one...or Nio ET5 touring? ...what should Thomas Choose? Nice review 🌹👍
beautiful color!!!! from Japan.
I want one
WHY DO I BOTHER WATCHING THOMAS AND HIS EXCELLENT VIDEOS!!!!! As a citizen of the United States, the best VWs will never come to the U.S. Watching these videos is just torture😎
Pity isn't it? But we do get some variant of these cars. We don't get the estate, but we do get the sedan.
would be cool if they used the motor of the ID.3 GTX for the rear axel only and then also this awd version separately
Wish the B9 looked as pretty as this
Nice really. VW finally nail it with their wagon bodystyle with the ID model.
VW is becoming a serious competitor for Mercedes and BMW. Really nice car!
Not saying much, a horse and cart is becoming a serious competitor for Mercedes.
Considering the prices, it makes sense. An VW ID.7 is around the price of a BMW i4!
Not even close. But it is an improvement for them.
I hope the tourer will come to the US, but I feel like I might be putting in an order for an ID7 AWD sedan later this year…
No way. Americans don't buy wagons.
The frunk is important because it demonstrates good packaging and design. The same problem borne out by the weight, cost, performance and range.
The step from the beautiful Karmann Ghia, the cool GTi gen1 or the sporty Scirocco has never been greater.
I'm amaized, well done VW
Love the design, but I doubt the estate will be available in the USA
VW and others need to bring back station wagons to North America. Superb and Octavia tourers would do well here.
Schön!
Really good car!
Sweet!
This car is lovely
One motor mounted in the rear may be the ideal and sensible setup for this performance-oriented variant in its facelift🤔.
Thomas whats your opinion, if they decided to bring an sport version from id7.. then they could bring also an sport version from the passat, a passat r.. is there any possibilities 😂🧐?
VW, please sell the ID.7 Tourer in the USA
I hope they give incentives to buy this vehicle in the US.
Would have expected a bigger difference between the regular and GTX. Also would have liked a higher towing capacity.
It needs a power wheel and tow hook for the GTX. When I step up to a higher trim those are the types of extras that make it worth the cost. More power accessories over the manuals.
At least it got past the turquoise blue pipping on every model for color that better matches the car. It still could used some more contrast on the interior. The lower trim is brighter and more airy than all the monotone gray of this GTX.
I'd recommend the smaller infotainment screen as this one is way to massive. It might be passable if it were lower down but not high up like this one. It detracts from the view outside the car.
Anyway, for the cost and level of the higher model it shouldn't have to have all those budget car reminders right in your face.
Will Australia see any I.D models at all. No word on them coming. The price of the I.d Buzz short wheel base is rumoured to be A$100,000. This is simply unaffordable for most people out there. Our charging infrastructure is abysmal, and our power supply is collapsing. We have no Nuclear power here. Maybe that's why VW still sends ICE cars to us. Nice cars and great review. Cheers.
Why are they pushing themselves upmarket and competing with their sister brand Audi? Wouldn’t it make more sense for an electric A6 to start around this price? I just struggle with the idea, especially knowing the US market, of an American purposely buying a VW this expensive.
Maybe I can help redefine your financial thought process -- Hyundai Ionic 5 = $55000. The "N" performance version of the same car (600+ hp) raise that figure to $70,000! Fell better now?
This is my favourite EV right now. Based solely on on-line presentations, but still. However, I hope there will be "normal" tyres/wheels available .These big wheels do nothing for me.
Are the 1400 kg towing correct? Other YTrs talk about 1600
they told me 1,4 t but I ll recheck
rechecked with VW, 1,4 t at 8 % incline
Awesome! What a great quality EV
Really a shame it's so expensive, it's really hard to swallow the price difference to a base model 3, specially with how much kit the Tesla gets standard.
I do agree it's worth more, but hot damn, 30% more😅
@@badbasicID 7 really is everything but overpriced
@@binflydushy Starts from 57k €, goes easily up to 70k... That's BMW i5 territory. Costs quite a bit more than an e-tron, Enyaq, model y, model 3....
Base Model 3 for 40k € is more efficient, with a bit worse range, less space, yet much sportier to drive and has a lot more kit. The long range version is still way cheaper at 50k, and beats it in every metric except space, and perhaps luxury if you really pimp out your ID7, but then you're paying 20k more...
@@badbasic i5 territory if you want entry level baseline, because 72k is where the i5 Touring starts. If you compare both as full house then you can easily shoot the i5 Touring over the 90k mark. Also all the other cars you are mentioned are in a smaller class than the ID7^^'
If you wanna stay with Tesla, a more fitting candidate instead of the Model 3 sizewise would be the Model S (Model S: 4,97 length vs ID7: 4,96 m length), which currently starts at nearly 95k here in Germany.
@@FurTalles You conveniently forget that both Enyaq and Model Y are bigger and cheaper, and Model S has 3 times the performance...
But sure, I'll take your side, car companies are not charging us enough, the cars are way too cheap! VW, what are you doing, that thing should START at 70k, and we should roll dice on what equipment you allow us to purchase!
VW wellcome to Thailand We need Id 7 please Thank you.
Why VW moved to the rear wheel drive while they have been always either front wheel or all wheel drive? Any particular reason behind it?
The MEB is a BEV only platform wirh rear drive, which brings several adv. like the turn circle, better traction and so on
A front wheel drive EV would have poor traction as it doesn't have the weight of a combustion engine on the front axle.
The car looks really good, I'm surprised more about the keyfob, since that's a keyfob I already have for my Skoda Octavia RS from 2021. Would seem a bit odd in my opinion when you have a more futuristic car than a 2021, to use the identical one in looks.
Still the range is a reason to why I remain with petrol/diesel. I drive once a month approximately 3.000KM to visit family or go to Switzerland for a longer weekend/ which would mean I'd still need to make 3 stops instead of 1 stop when I look at it. Then filling with petrol is just a lot quicker, which would imply the duration of the drive would be extended by 1 hour (when already driving for approximately 11/12 hours that makes a massive difference on tiredness levels.
Overall if it would achieve a range of lets say 800km (in the future) I'd be more interested in purchasing an EV, but that's something that currently isn't possible yet.
Very nice informative review. Very sad to hear the towing cap. is on ly 1,4 t, a deal breaker for me. Thanks
The car looks great. The proportions just work with this model, unlike the ID3, which is shaped like the 1st generation A Class.
A frunk is important. Having the charging cable under all the luggage gets old quickly. I usually end up having it in the rear footwell for that reason. Also, considering no manufacturer has made more cars with a frunk (Beetle) they should learn from history by reminding people the frunk was not invented by Tesla.
It's a beautifull car. The only thing that I don't like is the big screen. Too distracting, I find.
I went to have look at Volkswagen a few years ago, very disappointed with the inside. Think it's time to reevaluate.
Geil 👍😁
Did he mention price?
Is this the EV version of the new passat ?
No, ID7 and Passat are complete independent, but Yes, they are competitor within the same Brand, for same customers
@josefv8708 they look similar in body shape...yeah thought as much
The ID-7 is an amalgamation of the Passat and the Arteon. The Passat estate is still around. No estates for North America.
I had to choose a new car for my work and it was this ID.7 or a Tesla Y on the shortlist. This car was way more comfortable than the Model Y but I had to choose the Y because I have a caravan and need 1450kg towing capacity, the model Y can tow 1600kg . The VW can tow only 1000kg, and 1200 with the GTX in The Netherlands but not enough for me. In Germany it is strangely1200 and 1400kg, what the hell? Why is that? Overall, the VW is an awesome car. GTX too expensive for me.
That sounds weird, should be same for whole EU
I gotta ask about that…
Please sell this in the US! Please Please Please!
Everything looks good except 0 to 100😔, it needs to be under 5s to be called shorts version.
Why reinvent the steering wheel 😢 Those damn touch buttons
Why do you and other 'experts' continue to slide your finger and overstate this with your videos. You do know that you can also just touch the 'slider' at any point to adjust the temperature, just as if it was a button. You DO NOT have to slide your finger. Unbelievable how this 'BS' has been going on for years and years. I find it comical. Other than that I always enjoy your videos.
Watch the video again. He demonstrated that.
No orange peel in the paint job = it was manually sanded and polished to look perfect for the presentation. Unfortunately the production vehicle will not have the same perfect paint but nevertheless, awesome color combo.
Nice presentation, Thomas!
These vent directions control via infotaiment are rubish. What I do not like, that both ID7 and ID3 GTX for example have the same design wheels, and there are many more bits that are quite similar/the same. Not a fan of this. I prefer, that between classes the vechiles are differentiated, that you could feel and see why you pay more :) Also the quality does not look surprising.
GTX, but not Nvidia GPU🤩
On the contrary, the new 8-core processor is drastically improved.
I like the concept ID Vision version, why the production car never look as great as the concept ones??
I even think your hair is nicer!
No production car ever looks as complete as its concept. Concept as designed from a cost is no object perspective. Not even luxury car makers could afford that. At least not one that I've ever seen. Have you?
@@krane15 wow, don’t you wanna have a car as pretty as concept one??
Volkswagen is on a roll recently! Simpler, solid-er EVs.
Nice, but too expensive.
왜!! 한국에는 안가져오는것인가!!
왜!!!!!!!!
심지어 id.7 세단도 아직 없어. 한국에서는 경쟁이 어려워서 도망간것으로 보임.
Where is the sedan?
Not even if you gave it away for free!
Bring back the awesome music 🎶 from the VR6 engine!
FJB
for utility, almost everything you said is bull#### style. For people that want a car to carry people, great mileage, be able to go up steep roads at speed, has some baggage volume, and easy access to all seats...not so good.
Passat Variant R36 is quicker, 5.6 😅
Sporty ev - so just less range and less comfortable suspension?
Has thee ever been a time when that wasn't true with any car?
@@krane15 yes but it is very noticeable with evs. Its ridiculous what size of wheels some manufacturers put.
Wardrobe is lacking today
👌
not fast enough! all competitors are faster! they reserve the fast powetrains for Audi and Porsche.
It is not a performance car if it doesn’t have drum brakes on the rear axle. 😂
Erster
You got it backwards, the tourer will not be available in North America. As a car reviewer I would expect you to know estate cars do not sell well there. No disrespect
Did you not hear him saying that at 12:55?
A bit disappointing not to get ar least 300 kW.
Why the f… they use still that much of glossy plastics. Its ridiculous
I like it
60k € for the base regular version in some European markets. VW what are you smoking?
Just get a 5 series
...for 100 to 120k to get even similiar Features.
This car is a bargain compared to BMW and Mercedes.
The five-series costs almost 20k more with the same equipment.
@@erdbeerfeldheld007 Yes it does, but the GTX in some EU countries (at least 2 that I checked) is 72k (base version). And in the same countries a 5 series starts at 68k (base version).
I guess it depends on the country and taxes, but you can get a used 2021 Taycan for 70k so..🤷
No no, another vw ID with a face on the front of the car 😂
VW is way too expensive
Dont buy It, poor guy
good thing for VW. Bad for poor people that want one.
Compared to what? Its in the same range as its competitors from Hyundai.
“less than 6 seconds to 100km/h” ..VW not very confident with figures. Decent but not the best in any area
this is actually all I need. Tested faster ones but after 3 or 4 launches it gets old quickly. I can understand if you want more but I see why they did it.
@@ralfulrich6254Then make the price lower if they wont provide the performance to match this price.
@@UgglemannenFTW Volkswagen have good quality and the ID 7 is no sports car or cheap Chinese product. I think hey do good by having a higher price. Also remember nobody buys a Volkswagen without dealer discount.
@@ralfulrich6254 No cheap chinese product? The VW id7 cost half the price in china for the same car. They just charge absurd amounts in Europe for same cars.
@@UgglemannenFTW you know the Chinese car is produced in China? When VW would start paying below minimum wage and let thousands of workers go in the EU you would also complain. Things are cheaper in China because people there earn less. This is normal.
more then 2 tons is somehow sporty LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
and what about looks? literally nothing on it is sporty.
How do you define what looks sporty?
Volks cars are famous for their problematic electronic circutry. Now the whole car is electric.
What garbage!... It's like making a hamburger in the microwave. It may be faster, but it's no better.
it's actually not even faster than the standard model😅. Any 10 year old Golf could kill it on the highway
Damn you guys are clueless. Better educate yourselves before writing so much nonsense
@@bullshitbingo2259 Please enlighten us
Better how. Give an example.
Only desperados buy them. Otherwise why VW introduces a new model while the rest of VW electric vehicles sell badly? Going to buy a new car shortly but it will not be EV for sure.
So this fast vw is slower than the slowest Tesla? Not competitive at all
But there's no competition since Tesla doesn't sell Estates
@@edipires15 doesn't matter. Model Y is more practical than this with a huge boot and a fairly large drunk, is spacious and ride and handles really well
@@user-fp1vm5ev1u Actually, it is not more practical. Although the numbers may suggest otherwise, the shape of the Model Y doesn't allow for efficient space utilization. Recently, Bjorn Nyland conducted a banana box test to measure the capacity of the ID7 saloon and found that it fit the exact same number of boxes as the Model Y with the seats up (9 boxes) and only 2 fewer boxes with the seats down (24 boxes vs 26). If the regular saloon car can already match the Model Y, then this estate version will most likely surpass it with its improved capacity.
