It\u2019s only March 2021 but Volkswagen is eager to start the teaser campaign for a new electric sedan it will launch in five years. Yes, Project Trinity<\/a> isn\u2019t scheduled to come out until 2026 and yet the German brand is anxious to release a design sketch and some preliminary details about its promising EV. It will be built at home in Wolfsburg with \u201crevolutionary approaches\u201d as far as car manufacturing.<\/p>\n

The swoopy shape hints at a four-door coupe silhouette similar to the Arteon for what will be an electric car promising to deliver \u201cextremely short charging times\u201d and set new standards in terms of range. \u201cTrinity\u201d is only its codename as the final production model will go by another moniker once it will hit the streets in about five years from now.<\/p>\n

When it will arrive at Volkswagen dealers, the high-tech sedan will offer a Level 2+ autonomous driving system and should be technically ready to fulfill Level 4 requirements. The highly advanced self-driving setup prompts the company\u2019s CEO Ralf Brandst\u00e4tter to say Project Trinity will be kind of like a time machine because you\u2019ll be able to relax while the car is doing all the work on a highway.<\/p>\n

He goes on to say the automated driving system will also relieve stress as the driver won\u2019t have to worry about the usual challenges that arise on a public road, be them obstacles, accidents, or simply a busy road.<\/p>\n

VW aims to \u201ccompletely rethink\u201d the way it builds cars with Project Trinity, which will be available in fewer versions to streamline production and cut costs, also made possible by largely standardizing the hardware. Cutting down production complexity will be partially achieved by offering the electric sedan with \u201con demand\u201d functions, meaning owners will be able to gain access to features after acquiring the vehicle.<\/p>\n

In other words, Project Trinity will have most of the tech-related features installed on all cars, and should owners want to access some of them, they\u2019ll have to pay VW a fee to utilize the onboard goodies. It\u2019s a decision we\u2019ll be seeing more of in the years to come as some automakers are already rolling out \u201con demand\u201d features as cars get more technologically advanced.<\/p>\n
