According to Grunitz, Volkswagen’s first electric GTI will be “a real go kart” to drive. He’s already driven a prototype, claiming, “It’s really amazing.”
You can see the concept pulls design features from VW’s classic GTI models. However, the company promises new tech will enable even more control and handling for that “go kart” like feel.
Or just GT, since thats the two letters they also use for their diesels (GTD) and plug in hybrids (GTE).
They could have also gone with GTID, still GTI, but also ID, their EV brand.
