Volkswagen ID.7 GTX Models Launch in UK

With increased performance from dual-motor technology and dynamic exterior styling, the GTX adds a performance edge to what is already an incredibly well-received and award-winning package.

These GTX models feature the same 86 kWh (net) battery as the ID.7 Pro S Match derivatives. The addition of a front motor results in a power increase of 54 PS, bringing it to 340 PS. This also introduces 4MOTION all-wheel drive to the ID.7 and ID.7 Tourer for the first time.

The ID.7 GTX is currently Volkswagen’s most powerful electric vehicle, accelerating from 0 to 62 mph in just 5.4 seconds. The ID.7 GTX Tourer achieves the same sprint in 5.5 seconds – a remarkable feat for a car offering 605 liters of luggage space with five passengers on board (when the rear seats are in the cargo position).

Range capabilities remain impressive, with a WLTP all-electric range of 366 miles for the ID.7 GTX and 359 miles for the ID.7 GTX Tourer. Both models can be charged at up to 200 kW DC, allowing a top-up from 10 to 80 percent of battery capacity in just 26 minutes.

Exclusive Look and Equipment

Both new models offer the same high levels of luxury and equipment enjoyed by existing ID.7 drivers, with enhanced specifications over the Pro Match trim. This includes 20-inch Skagen alloy wheels, GTX exterior styling, ventilated and heated massage seats in the front, heated rear seats, a Harman Kardon sound system, and Volkswagen’s DCC adaptive chassis control system complete with driving profile selection.

Additional standard features include IQ.LIGHT LED matrix headlights with illuminated Volkswagen logos at the front and rear, unique GTX daytime running lights, an augmented-reality head-up display, GTX-specific interior styling, and Volkswagen’s IDA voice assistant with integrated ChatGPT. Park Assist Pro, allowing drivers to control parking procedures using a smartphone, is among a long list of attractive options available for both models.
