# Volkswagen sospende lo sviluppo della ID Golf elettrica

> Volkswagen ha interrotto lo sviluppo della ID Golf elettrica per mancanza di risorse finanziarie, in un contesto di riduzione delle spese sui futuri modelli, con un lancio comunque annunciato per l'inizio degli anni 2030. Il costruttore precisa inoltre le informazioni confermate sul suo futuro piccolo veicolo elettrico a 20.000 euro, distinguendo gli annunci dalle speculazioni. La stampa brasiliana evoca un possibile partenariato con SAIC e FAW per rilanciare la ID Golf, un'angolazione specifica di questa copertura. Il dossier è trattato anche in Italia e negli Stati Uniti.
