Summary

The Volkswagen ID. Cross 85 kW - 37 kWh (MY27) is a 5-seat SUV with front-wheel drive, not sold in the UK, but on sale from €27,995 in Germany and €27,990 in the Netherlands. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 11.0 seconds, slower than 90% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 143 miles (230 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 485 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 242nd of 243 SUVs.

It uses around 3.8 mi/kWh (163 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.4 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 37.5 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 70 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 159 miles (256 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses LFP chemistry, which manufacturers generally allow to be charged to 100% routinely.
