# Volkswagen’s low-cost electric SUV caught rocking a new look as the camo comes off

The ID.Cross is due out in mid-2026 as part of Volkswagen’s new family of affordable EVs. Like the ID.Polo, the electric T-Cross sibling, is set to bring a fresh new look that VW promises will deliver “the secret sauce” we’ve been waiting for.

## The Volkswagen ID.Cross is a low-cost electric SUV

Just a few days after the first ID.Polo prototypes were tested by journalists in Europe, we are getting a closer look at the second member of Volkswagen’s upcoming entry-level EV lineup.

The ID.Cross is essentially an electric alternative to the T-Cross, one of Volkswagen’s best-selling models in Europe.

Like the ID.Polo, the electric SUV marks the beginning of a “new generation of Volkswagen” that’s more efficient, smarter, better looking, and, perhaps, more importantly, more affordable. It will be the second ID model to bear an established Volkswagen name.
