"The battery-powered city car, which could carry the name ID.1, is slated to be priced below €20,000 or £17,500, slotting under VW's upcoming ID.2 hatchback...the German carmaker is not a stranger to making small electric cars. The discontinued e-Up! was its first foray into the segment

"When it debuts, probably sometime in 2026, the so-called ID.1 will go up against the next-generation Renault Twingo, which also will cost about €20,000."
