Volkswagen’s ID.4 has just launched, and it will be followed by the ID.5 later this year. Spotted testing here, the ID.5 will be a larger, coupe-crossover heavily based on the ID.4.

Mechanical and interior changes to the ID.5 over the ID.4 are likely to be kept to a minimum — think of it as a sportier version of the ID.4, similar to Audi‘s Q4 e-tron and a Q4 Sportback e-tron. As pictured here, you can see the sloping roof and an integrated spoiler above the taillights. Pay no attention to the Kia-like styling of the front “grille”; this is mere camouflage.

Expect the ID.5 to share a lot with the ID.4. That means that the interior is likely to be largely unchanged, with the option of a 5.3-inch digital instrument cluster as well as a 10.0 or 12-inch infotainment system.

Motor and battery options will supposedly go unchanged between the two models too. That means that, initially, the ID.5 will likely feature a rear-mounted electric motor driving the rear wheels. Depending on the market, the ID.4 is available with 146 hp (109 kW / 148 PS) and 162 lb-ft (220 Nm), 168 hp (125 kW / 170 PS) and 229 lb-ft (310 Nm), or 201 hp (150 kW / 204 PS) and 229 lb-ft (310 Nm) of torque. It also features an 82 kWh battery pack (77 kWh net) that offers an estimated driving range of 250 miles (402 km) on a full charge on the EPA cycle in the most powerful version.

Also, as with the ID.4, expect a hot GTX version with twin motors and all-wheel drive. The ID.4 GTX will launch on April 28 and although details have been kept under wraps, we expect it to have a combined output of 302 HP, like the Skoda Enyaq iV RS.
