IQ. Light

Appear in a shining light

The new ID.5 shines with a genuine highlight at the very first glance with the innovative IQ.LIGHT as standard. The matrix technology of this system permits continuous driving with main beam without dazzling other road users⁠⁠^⁠. An elegant light strip extends between the LED matrix headlights and the Volkswagen logo. And what creates an impression at the front also does at the rear with the 3D LED tail light clusters including animated brake lights and integrated dynamic turn signal indicating the intended direction with a dynamic flowing light movement.

Panoramic sunroof

Heavenly views

The ID.5 comes with a panoramic sunroof as standard which is an eye-catching feature with its enormous glazed area extending over practically the entire width of the roof. Even more appealing: an unobstructed view of the sky above which can be operated very conveniently by voice control; for example, say “Hello ID., show me the stars” and the blind opens. The tinted glass also ensures pleasant temperatures in the vehicle whilst the sunblind protects against strong sunlight.

Towing bracket

For all those who want to move something

Do you need to transport additional equipment? The optional trailer bracket swivels out electrically at the push of the button to create more space for the things that help you get through the day. Designed for loads up to 750 kg (unbraked) or up to 1,200 kg^⁠ (braked), you can transport many different things with your ID.5, such as a horse box or a kayak. On journeys where you do not need the towing bracket, you can fold it under the bumper out of sight in a few easy steps.

Interior

Ambient lighting

Light for almost any mood

Give your ID.5 more personality. Choose from 30 digital colours as standard in the ambient lighting package and gently illuminate the vehicle interior, including dash panel, mobile phone tray and doors. Whether cooler or warm lighting – it is completely up to you.

AR Head-up-Display

Pioneering navigation

In the new ID.5, you have an overview of everything that matters. The standard augmented reality head-up display projects important information directly into the field of view of the windscreen. Thanks to augmented reality technology, you can see the navigation information exactly where you have to drive or turn off. This means that you arrive at your destination more relaxed without taking your eyes off the road.

Voice assistant and ID. Light

Say “Hello” to your ID.5

Keep your eyes on the road and control equipment such as the radio, navigation system or your telephone quite simply by intuitive voice control. Just say -“Hello ID.” – and the system will understand you. As soon as you use the voice control, ID. Light responds to your voice. Using the ID. Light, your ID.5 also communicates visually and, in conjunction with the navigation system, helps you to get through traffic with even less stress. The car welcomes you and translates instructions from your infotainment and assist systems into light signals that guide you through the traffic more easily. And when you get out of the ID.5, the ID. Light bids you farewell – with light signals.

Music streaming fully integrated

The right song for every moment

Do you use Apple Music? If so, you can enjoy your favourite music in the new ID.5 directly via the versatile Discover Pro navigation system – without the need for additional steps on your smartphone or tablet. All you have to do is download the corresponding app and log in with your login details in order to directly access your Apple Music account via the navigation system display and stream millions of songs, exclusive content or the latest podcasts.

Technology

Travel Assist with swarm data

Keeps you in your lane and others at a distance

The ID.5 benefits from Travel Assist with swarm data as standard, so you have an extremely useful driving assistance system on board.
Travel Assist with swarm data can keep you in lane, maintain a distance from the vehicle in front and also ensure that the vehicle keeps to a maximum speed that you have set^⁠^,⁴^,⁵.

Among other things, it uses the adaptive lane guidance system for this. This system actively keeps the vehicle in the middle of its lane. Travel Assist with swarm data adapts itself to your driving style and can also keep the vehicle further left or right in the lane instead of exactly in the centre^⁠^,⁵.

Travel Assist with swarm data can also actively assist when changing lane on the motorway if wished^⁠^,⁵^,⁶. A prerequisite for the above functions is that Travel Assist with swarm data is able to recognise the road lane markings on both sides.

If mass location data is available, in other words the driving data from several vehicles nearby, Travel Assist with swarm data needs to recognise only one road lane marking in order to keep the vehicle in lane, for example on country roads without center lane markings^⁠^,⁷.

Travel Assist with swarm data also comes with predictive cruise control and a cornering assist function. Here, the vehicle speed can be adapted to valid speed limits and the course of the road (bends, roundabouts, etc.)^⁠^,⁶.

Over-the-Air Updates

Electronic engine sound / Driving experience

This car has a new sound

The quietness of an electric vehicle depends completely on the vehicle in question. In order to make road traffic safer, your ID.5 is quieter inside and then slightly louder outside using the exterior e-sound up to a speed of 30 km/h (18mph). This ensures that it is noticed more easily by pedestrians. The futuristic composition underlines its visionary identity and at the same time serves as an artificially generated vehicle noise so that the practically silent electric drives can be heard by pedestrians and cyclists.

Heat pump and range manager

Supports in cold temperatures: the heat pump of the ID.5

In the new all-electric ID.5, an optional heat pump ensures energy-efficient heating of the vehicle interior. The energy saved here has a positive effect on the range.

The route planner of the ID. family (coming soon) supports you in everyday driving by planning preferred charging points in your navigation route and intelligently optimising both the route and required charging times. As you can see, many things become easier with innovative technologies.
