After listening to his answer, I summarized a core point of view, that is, the current electric vehicle consumer group can be roughly divided into two categories: one is the early adopters, they are interested in the novel functions on the PPT, even if the manufacturer has no previous car manufacturing experience, they are willing to pay for those functions that look very unique; the other is the practical school of my colleagues, as an old driver for many years, they know that a family car needs comprehensive and reliable product power.
Less than a year after its listing, sales have exceeded 40,000
Although Volkswagen is the king of the era of fuel vehicles, it is the first time to build an electric vehicle. Therefore, colleagues were cautious about the ID.CROZZ family at first.
After a year of market baptism, the ID.CROZZ family has proved its strength with sales.

In contrast, Xiaopeng Motors, Weilai Automobile and Ideal Automobile, which are considered to be the first echelons of new energy, delivered 98,155, 91,429 and 90,491 new vehicles in the whole year of 2021, respectively. But you know, they have been working in the market for a long time, and the newly arrived ID.CROZZ family reached nearly half of the sales of these "leading" brands at the beginning, which is enough to show its strength.
At the same time, in the past year, the ID.CROZZ family has also won awards in the judging of multiple professional platforms for its outstanding product strength. Among them, the highest gold content is the ID.4 CROZZ overseas version with innovative technology and sustainable technology with zero direct emissions, which won the 2021 World Model of the Year Award with a score of 798 points.
Profound technical heritage, quality and safety plus points
The reason why it debuted is outstanding is inseparable from the technical strength of the ID.CROZZ family. Id.CROZZ family comes from Volkswagen's new energy platform MEB platform, which absorbs Volkswagen's decades of car-making experience and hundreds of millions of user data and other nutrients, compared with those so-called new car-making forces to create electric drive platforms, MEB platforms have more advantages in terms of core security and car-making processes.

In terms of car manufacturing process, backed by Volkswagen's decades of experience in car building, the ID.CROZZ family not only has excellent product quality and product consistency, but also is more in place in terms of details, ensuring that the product can always ensure reliable quality in the process of consumers' car use for more than ten years. Moreover, Volkswagen's accumulation over the years has long established a moat of word of mouth in the hearts of consumers.
The actual experience is excellent, and the battery life is highly realistic
Take the long-endurance PRO two-wheel drive version of the colleague as an example, which is equipped with a rear-mounted drive motor with a maximum horsepower of 204 horses and a maximum torque of 310 Nm, and the power parameters are comparable to those of the 2.0T fuel engine, which is the leading level in the compact SUV. Moreover, in order to adapt to different car use scenarios, it provides four driving modes such as economy, comfort, sports and personalization, each driving mode matches the corresponding power output, steering feel and kinetic energy recovery.
The size of the ID.4 CROZZ belongs to the compact SUV, its length, width and height are 4592 * 1852 * 1629mm, the wheelbase is 2765mm, thanks to its new pure electric architecture, the space layout is much better than the same level of fuel vehicles, front and rear passengers have sufficient seating space margin.
