"The Volkswagen ID. Polo brings back proper buttons. That's a welcome change compared to the outgoing ID-branded EVs. There's a row of buttons under the central touchscreen, physical controls for all of the windows, and dedicated buttons for volume and track adjustment. Buttons are back in fashion at Volkswagen, and it all starts with the new ID. Polo subcompact electric car, which will go on sale in Europe in April and is expected to start from less than $30,000 (25,000)."
"Now, the German automaker has taken the wraps off the interior of the new ID. Polo, and there's quite a bit to unpack here. Let's talk screens first. There's a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel, as well as a 13-inch touchscreen in the middle of the dashboard. On certain trim levels, these two screens can be set up to look like the retro gauges of the first-generation Golf hatchback, which adds a bit of retro to the mix."
"Moving to the steering wheel, the Volkswagen ID. Polo has a wealth of physical controls for cruise control, volume, track selection and various vehicle settings. There's also a set of buttons on the center console for volume and track selection. Best of all, the infuriating two-step window control panel on the driver's door, which has been a staple of Volkswagen's EV interiors, is out of the picture. In its place, a traditional, four-button setup has been integrated, which means drivers no longer"
The Volkswagen ID. Polo reintroduces tactile controls, including a row of buttons beneath the central 13-inch touchscreen, dedicated climate controls, and physical volume and track buttons on the center console. The cockpit features a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 13-inch central display, with an optional retro-style gauge layout reminiscent of the first-generation Golf. Steering-wheel-mounted physical controls handle cruise, audio and vehicle settings. The driver's door gains a traditional four-button window panel instead of the previous two-step control. The subcompact EV aims for affordability in Europe, expected on sale in April with a starting price under €25,000.
