Volkswagen set to launch next Golf and I.D electric car at the same time

It may seem that Volkswagen this year has been working overtime for the preview of its upcoming electric models --- the ID Buzz and the ID Crozz but somewhere in between, the German automaker continues to make new versions of its current vehicle lineup.

Soon to launch is the eighth generation Volkswagen Golf which will come in sequence with the very exciting premiere of Volkswagen’s ID electric hatchback. Speaking with Drive earlier this week, Jurgen Stackman, VW board member and sales & marketing head, said that the premiere of the new Golf should be expected in early 2018 which will be succeeded by the unveiling of the ID hatch.

As long as the purchase price is competitive, this new generation EV e-Golf will be a winner for VW.
With at least 186 mile range (or more), VW removes all range anxiety and all compromises.

VW still does not sell in volumes - and small Hatchbacks as well as cars in general are not selling. AS far as the EV - until I see some indication that a market is there for them in BIG numbers - (That is for a small EV hatch) who really cares- another car that will sell in the hundreds of units - nobody makes money on those.
