Yet another special version from the Volkswagen ID. family has been made. This time, the Volkswagen ID.5 GTX Xcite we see here was shaped by the vision of young apprentices at Volkswagen who contributed their skills in mechanics, body works and painting to the implementation of the project.
The show car was based on precise planning and liaison, with young people working under their own responsibility. They made external changes that included comprehensive work on the body.
Green Lamborghini paint work and black powder-coated rims almost make the ID.5 GTX Xcite look like a baby Lamborghini Urus Wheel houses were modified, door sills were widened and the front and rear fenders were adapted. The car combines matte and gloss paintwork from the Lamborghini and Volkswagen paint ranges. The individually produced 22-inch forged aluminium rims are powder-coated, creating a Lamborghini-ish presence.
Sustainability was an important element of the car, with both Alcantara and vegan leather being used in the interior. The cockpit, steering wheel, door trims and roof liner were also upgraded.
The saddlers also developed a complete, continuous pattern from the ID honeycomb. This is embroidered on the central sections of the seats and the door trims. The project logo was embroidered on the front headrests. This consists of the ID logo combined with a figure 8, symbolising the number of projects completed to date.
Only sustainable materials used here, boosting the green credentials of the already eco-friendly fully electric ID.5 The car features a digital sound system designed by the project team using equipment from Gladen, Musway and Bang & Olufsen, with 10 amplifiers, a subwoofer and a total output of 2,000W.
The 14 young apprentices working on this year's project are in the second and third years of their training as construction mechanics, process technicians for coating technology, vehicle paint technicians, motor vehicle mechatronics technicians, electronics technicians for automation electronics, warehouse logistics operators and mechatronics technicians.
Since the Zwickau vehicle plant has solely produced all-electric models, the ID. Meet in Switzerland, which has been held since 2021 and is privately organised, has been the major showcase for the all-electric show cars. The first show car presented at the Meet was an ID.3 in 2021.
