Future meets tradition
Volkswagen has dedicated itself to electromobility. At the 2019 Goodwood FOS, we give proof of how emotional this topic can be.
With the future fully-electric production vehicles from the ID. family, Volkswagen is making an important contribution to a new era, the electric drive in production vehicles. The ID.R is the racing spearheading electromobility ‘made by Volkswagen’ with the letter “R” intrinsically linked to success in motorsport.
The ID.R is back
Volkswagen is driving electromobility forward at pace. The racing spearhead of this type of drive is the fully-electric ID. R. The thoroughbred sports car has been the subject of continuous development ahead of its upcoming outings.
Record run at the 2018 FOS
In 2018 Romain Dumas set a new record for electric cars at the Goodwood FoS in the ID.R. Following his record-breaking exploits at the legendary Pikes Peak International Hill Climb just three weeks ago, Dumas beat the previous fastest time for electric cars on the Goodwood Hillclimb by 3.48 seconds.

New challenges are what fuels us. For the ID.R and us, that is what all the upcoming events are about. We want to achieve new heights and make dreams come true. Together we strive to prove how fascinating and inspiring electro-mobility can be – under the engine hood and far beyond the motor racing world.
ID. Volkswagen – this is for all of us
It’s time for a power shift: time for everyone to plug in and take part in a new movement. With the launch of the fully-electric ID. family, electric mobility becomes accessible for everyone. We believe that by harnessing power for the few, one can make a change. But only by harnessing power for the many, we can change the world.
Electric becomes affordable
By launching ID., Volkswagen makes electric driving available to the many and the millions. The ID. family offers driving solutions at the price point of a comparable car with a combustion engine – because no game-changing idea is for the better, unless everyone can become a part of it.
Volkswagen R
Impressive dynamics and demanding motorsports design are the benchmarks of Volkswagen‘s R-models. With top sporting performance, utmost precision, and a unique driving feel, you will experience power at a new level. Volkswagen R has been involved in motorsports for years – with impressive results.
