Using a newly developed GTI Experience Control on the centre console, the driver can choose which characteristics the powertrain of the ID.GTI Concept should have. This permits realisation of a wide range of different GTI profiles. This is possible because the set-up of the electric drive motor, as an electric system, can be varied almost infinitely. Here, the Vehicle Dynamics Manager of the ID.GTI Concept integrates the powertrain into the control system to an even greater extent than on the petrol models. With the ID.GTI Concept, Volkswagen is presenting a new evolutionary stage of these electronically networked driving dynamics systems. Following on from this, the letter "I" for injection in the GTI name now also stands for intelligence - in the form of high-performance drive and chassis intelligence. With the ID.GTI Concept, an electric Volkswagen now has this intelligent system on board for the first time. The Golf GTI and Golf GTI Clubsport were the first Volkswagen models with this traction control system. This is because a front-axle differential lock - electronically controlled by a Vehicle Dynamics Manager - is used just like in the current generation of the sports car icon.
The worlds of the electric ID.GTI Concept and turbocharged Golf GTI meet up when it comes to power transmission to the front axle. This is because the maximum power and maximum torque are available with the lightning-fast speed typical of electric vehicles. There is a new, powerful GTI feeling in the way the first electric GTI unleashes its dynamic capabilities.

And just like the ID.2all, the ID.GTI Concept is more than just a show car - it is the first glimpse of the exciting GTI future because its series development has already been decided. Volkswagen Head of Design Andreas Mindt already also had the sporty derivative in mind when he produced the first sketches for the ID.2all.
Its front-wheel drive, clear design and powerful proportions make it the perfect starting point for a new GTI. The ID.GTI Concept is based on the ID.2all presented in March 2023 - a future electric compact car that costs around 25,000 euros and which has generated worldwide attention. The world premiere of this electrifying concept vehicle took place during the 2023 IAA Mobility in Munich - exactly 48 years after the worldwide debut of the first Golf GTI at the IAA in Frankfurt. Volkswagen is now catapulting GTI DNA into the age of electric mobility with the new ID.GTI Concept. Golf GTI, Scirocco GTi, Polo GTI, up! GTI. GTI - for decades now, this name has stood for compact sports cars from Volkswagen.
