Volkswagen has confirmed that its upcoming electric crossover, currently known as the ID.5, will not be rebranded under the Tiguan name when it enters production. The decision marks a shift away from the traditional Tiguan moniker, which has been associated with the brand’s compact SUV lineup for years. Instead, the ID.5 will maintain its electric-focused identity, signaling Volkswagen’s continued push into fully electric vehicles. This move could reshape consumer expectations around the brand’s SUV offerings as it transitions to an all-electric future.
