Wow. Super competitive products there. This will be fun to watch.

So, a $24k VW ID with ~50kWh battery, to compare to a $35k Model 3 and a $36.6k Bolt. That'll shake up the market, since Tesla and GM are losing their federal tax credit. Good for customers.

It is one thing to announce a price target for a future vehicle, and another thing to actually produce the cars and offer them for sale at that price. We all saw how the Model 3 has been priced despite early announcements. I will believe it when they get to that point. I would also be wary of build quality based on my experience with VWs. I recently rented a nearly new one that was already a bucket of bolts. Plus the two I owned did not impress. But I hope this one works out. It would be great to have an EV option at that price point with useful range.

Only confirms what we've been saying all along. As batteries become cheaper and hold more energy, the prices will come closer to ICE vehicles and the ranges will increase. We will be spoiled for choice.
