The Volkswagen Group is the latest car manufacturer to announce massive investments in electrification in the United States. The automotive conglomerate has pledged to spend a whopping $7.1 billion in the next five years in North America to bolster its EV portfolio. In addition, some of the funds will be used to increase local production and boost R&D efforts.<\/p>\n
In the long run, the VW Group will launch more than 25 new EVs by 2030 when it estimates 55% of annual new car sales will be represented by models without a combustion engine. Leading the way will be the ID.4 electric SUV<\/a> set to enter series production later this year at the Chattanooga factory in Tennessee.<\/p>\n The hotly anticipated ID. Buzz van will hit stateside in 2024 and will be followed from 2026 by a series of new electric SUVs. Meanwhile, the Mexican factories in Silao and Puebla are going to be upgraded to accommodate the assembly of EVs and electric motors by 2025. Not only that, but the VW Group is working towards localizing major engineering and design duties by the end of the decade.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
