Recently, we saw the SAIC-Volkswagen ID.ERA 5X in the catalogue of NEV models (thirty-fourth batch) exempted from vehicle purchase tax. The vehicle is the first pure electric SUV under the ID.ERA series, and is also the world's first CMP pure electric platform with CEA electronic and electrical architecture in mass production. It is expected to be officially launched in the fourth quarter of 2026 (expected in November). The vehicle is equipped with 45.8kWh and 58.5kWh battery packs, and the pure electric range is 415km and 520km, respectively. In terms of appearance, the ID.ERA 5X continues the simple and rugged design style of the ID.ERA family. The front face adopts the iconic enclosed shape of a pure electric vehicle model, equipped with a through-type LED light strip, the Volkswagen brand logo supports light, and the Lingyou matrix led headlights are mounted on both sides. The body has a short front and rear suspension and a long wheelbase layout, the length, width and height of the body are 4560x1896x1630mm, the wheelbase reaches 2815mm, and the 17 ‑ 19 inch multi-spec wheels are optional. The rear of the vehicle is equipped with through-type taillights and roof spoilers to optimize the wind resistance performance of the entire vehicle. Earlier, the official announced a new low-saturated green car paint, enriching consumers' appearance options. Officials said that the new car paint color will be decided by the user co-creation. In terms of interior, the new car adopts the minimalist cockpit layout of "Yunqi Intelligent Cabin". Relying on the CEA electronic and electrical architecture, the number of vehicle control units has been reduced by about 30%, and the hardware level supports the continuous OTA upgrade of the entire vehicle. The car is equipped with a floating central control large screen, full LCD instrument, electronic nesting, wireless charging module, and a panoramic sky screen. Thanks to the 2815mm wheelbase, the rear floor is flat, and the five-seat layout can provide a generous rear passenger space. In the intelligent part, the high-end models are equipped with 192-wire lidar, equipped with MTK8676's 4-nanometer vehicle gauge chip, and equipped with the "Traveling Cloud Intelligent Traveling" assisted driving system, which can realize end-to-end full-scenario L2 + + city Noa, covering urban roads, high-speed, automatic parking and other use scenarios; it should be noted that the lidar is assembled in the high-end version, not the whole system standard. In terms of power, the new car is equipped with a rear permanent magnet synchronous motor provided by United Auto Electronics, with a peak power of 155kW (211 horsepower) and a maximum speed of 175km/h. The battery adopts the lithium iron phosphate battery supplied by the Ningde era, which meets the new national safety standard for batteries in China.
