The new ID.5 shines with a genuine highlight at the very first glance:  the innovative IQ.LIGHT. The matrix technology of this system permits continuous driving with main beam without dazzling other road users⁠. An elegant light strip extends between the attractively shaped LED matrix headlights and the Volkswagen logo. And what creates an impression at the front should naturally also be present at the rear: the package includes the optional 3D LED tail light clusters with animated brake light and integrated dynamic turn signal that indicates the intended direction with a dynamic flowing light movement.

The panoramic sunroof is an eye-catching feature in itself with its enormous glazed area, which extends over practically the entire width of the roof. Even more appealing: an unobstructed view of the sky above. The tinted glass also ensures pleasant temperatures in the vehicle. The sun blind protects against strong sunlight and can be operated very conveniently by voice control, for example. Say “Hello ID., show me the stars” and the blind opens.

Do you need to transport additional equipment? The optionally available trailer bracket swivels out electrically at the push of the button to create more space for the things that help you get through the day. Designed for loads up to 750 kg (unbraked) or up to 1,200 kg (braked), you can transport many different things with your ID.5, such as a horse box or a kayak. On journeys where you do not need the towing bracket, you can fold it under the bumper out of sight in a few easy steps. 

Give your ID.5 more personality. Choose from many standard colours and gently illuminate the vehicle interior, including dash panel, mobile phone tray and doors. Whether cooler or warm lighting – it is completely up to you.

In the new ID.5, you have an overview of everything that matters. The augmented reality head-up display projects important information directly into the field of view of the windscreen. Thanks to the augmented reality technology, you can see the navigation information exactly where you have to drive or turn off. This means that you arrive at your destination more relaxed without taking your eyes off the road.

Keep your eyes on the road and control equipment such as the radio, navigation system or your telephone quite simply by intuitive voice control. Just say “Hello ID.” – and the system will understand you. As soon as you use the voice control, ID. Light responds to your voice. Using the ID. Light, your ID.5 also communicates visually and, in conjunction with the navigation system, helps you to get through traffic with even less stress. The car welcomes you and translates instructions from your infotainment and assist systems into light signals that guide you through the traffic more easily. And when you get out of the ID.5, the ID. Light bids you farewell – with light signals.

Do you use Apple Music? If so, you can enjoy your favourite music in the new ID.5 directly via the versatile optional Discover Pro navigation system – without the need for additional steps on your smartphone or tablet. All you have to do is download the corresponding app and log in with your login details in order to directly access your Apple Music account via the navigation system display and stream millions of songs, exclusive content or the latest podcasts. 

With Travel Assist with swarm data, you have an extremely useful driving assistance system on board. 

Travel Assist with swarm data can keep you in lane, maintain a distance from the vehicle in front and also ensure that the vehicle keeps to a maximum speed that you have set. 

Among other things, it uses the adaptive lane guidance system for this. This system actively keeps the vehicle in the middle of its lane. Travel Assist with swarm data adapts itself to your driving style and can also keep the vehicle further left or right in the lane instead of exactly in the centre.

Travel Assist with swarm data can also actively assist when changing lane on the motorway if wished.(1,3,4) A prerequisite for the above functions is that Travel Assist with swarm data is able to recognise the road lane markings on both sides.

If mass location data is available, in other words the driving data from several vehicles nearby, Travel Assist with swarm data needs to recognise only one road lane marking in order to keep the vehicle in lane, for example on country roads without center lane markings. 

Travel Assist with swarm data also comes with predictive cruise control and a cornering assist function. Here, the vehicle speed can be adapted to valid speed limits and the course of the road (bends, roundabouts, etc.).

Updates increase the functionality of the digital systems in your ID.5. Thanks to Over-the-Air Updates, it can update the systems fully automatically overnight, for example, as soon as you confirm the update on your Infotainment system. This means that your ID.5 is always up-to-date and you are provided with new functions in your vehicle.

If you choose Park Assist Plus with memory function*, you can teach your ID.5 very individual parking manoeuvres. In order to park in a carport or garage, for example. For this, you just have to park your ID.5 once yourself and save the parking procedure. Your ID.5 can then repeat the learned parking manoeuvre on its own. All you need to do then is monitor the operation. 

Already with the Park Assist Plus your ID.5 not only tells you whether a parking space is large enough when driving past, but can also drive into it for you.

Up to a speed of 40 km/h, Park Assist Plus continuously searches for suitable parallel parking spaces. It also searches for parking bays up to a speed of 20 km/h. You can start the parking procedure after choosing one of the found parking spaces. Park Assist Plus with memory function* can perform the respective parking manoeuvre for you. All you have to do is monitor the parking procedure and intervene if necessary. 

But Park Assist Plus can do even more. It can also drive out of parallel parking spaces again. It can also help you during an unsuccessful parking manoeuvre by completing the procedure for you.

The quietness of an electric vehicle depends completely on the vehicle in question. In order to make road traffic safer, your ID.5 is quieter inside and slightly louder towards the outside up to a speed of 30 km/h. This ensures that it is noticed more easily by pedestrians. The futuristic composition underlines its visionary identity and at the same time serves as an artificially generated vehicle noise so that the practically silent electric drives can be heard by pedestrians and cyclists.

The new ID.5 makes sure that practically every journey feels exciting. Because its electric motor develops it power dynamically right from the start and with full torque. And ensures that you take a large step forwards on the way to a smaller carbon footprint. 

In the new all-electric ID.5, an optional heat pump ensures energy-efficient heating of the vehicle interior. The energy saved here has a positive effect on the range.

The new route planner of the ID. family supports you in everyday driving by planning preferred charging points in your navigation route and intelligently optimising both the route and required charging times. As you can see, many things become easier with innovative technologies.

With the ID. Charger you have a charging point in your own home. It allows you to get into your charged ID.5 in the morning and drive off into the day full of energy. Charging while you sleep, so to speak. The ID. Charger is available in three versions with increasing connectivity and intelligence: if required, it is also available with Wi-Fi, 4G and a built-in electricity meter. The intelligent functions of the ID. Chargers can be controlled via We Charge in the We Connect ID. app.

The installation service also makes things as convenient as possible for you – from the free online pre-check through to actual installation. In a nutshell, a care-free solution from a single source. You can of course also have the ID. Charger installed by your preferred electrician. You can order your desired ID. Charger variant and the installation service conveniently online or directly from your Volkswagen dealership.

From now, there is much less for you to think about. We Charge gives you access to one of the largest and fastest growing Europe-wide1 including the entire IONITY quick charging network. ID. drivers can choose from a range of attractive charging tariffs designed for everyone from occasional to frequent drivers and enjoy exclusive price benefits. The charging tariffs2 and the free charging card2 can be ordered via the We Connect ID. app3.

The connectivity offers from Volkswagen give you more convenience, security and entertainment. The connection of your ID.5 to the internet and your smartphone brings you to your destination more relaxed - all you have to do is drive yourself.
