Volkswagen celebrates German premiere of I.D. VIZZION in Berlin

Starting in 2020, #Volkswagen will be launching the I.D. Family, a range of newly-developed electric vehicles with long driving ranges and visionary design that will come to market in quick succession. Three I.D. models have already been presented as concept cars: the compact I.D. and the I.D. CROZZ SUV, debuting as production models in 2020, and the I.D. BUZZ microbus, which becomes reality in 2022. At the Geneva International Motor Show, #Volkswagen will present the newest member of the I.D. Family: the #idvizzion sedan. The concept car drives autonomously, is operated by voice and gesture control, and thanks to artificial intelligence, will be capable of learning.

In a vision of what may be possible by the year 2030, the I.D. VIZZION’s ‘digital chauffeur’ assumes control of the vehicle—without a steering wheel or visible controls. The concept car drives, steers and navigates autonomously in traffic, enabling passengers to sit back and enjoy the ride. A virtual ‘host’ knows the personal preferences of the vehicle guests and it adapts to each of them individually. Interaction with the #idvizzion is possible via augmented reality and newly designed mixed reality eyewear—the HOLOLENSTM developed by Microsoft®. Expected to come to production in 2022, the #idvizzion will first be available with conventional controls.
