On the road to the world premiere: first appearance of the new ID.7 sedan with digital camouflage
Volkswagen is set to showcase its first fully electric sedan based on the modular electric drive matrix (MEB) at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas between January 5th and 8th, 2023.
The ID.7, which is the latest addition to Volkswagen’s electric vehicle (EV) family, will be clad in smart camouflage that uses unique technology and multi-layered paintwork to create light effects on parts of the vehicle. This interactive feature is a symbol of the next step in the digitalization of the future flagship model of Volkswagen’s EV family.
The ID.7 sedan is Volkswagen’s next global electric vehicle and will be offered on three continents. The series production version of the ID.7 is scheduled for the second quarter of 2023. The new EV boasts an aerodynamic design and is able to achieve a manufacturer’s estimated range of up to 700 kilometers for European models based on a simulated WLTP cycle.

Augmented reality head-up display
The ID.7 comes with a host of innovative features as standard, including a new display concept, an augmented reality head-up display, a 38-centimeter (15-inch) screen, digitally controlled air vents, and illuminated touch sliders.
The new air conditioning system has intelligent vents and offers a number of functions, such as detecting when the driver is approaching with their key and starting to cool or heat the interior before the driver gets into the vehicle.
CES 2023
At the CES, VW will show the ID.7 in a special way. The camouflaged sedan features a digital design with unique paintwork, which lights up the ID.7 interactively. No fewer than 40 layers of paint have been applied, some of which are conductive while others have insulating properties. A total of 22 areas of the vehicle can be controlled separately and are electrified below the top layer of paint (electroluminescence) so that they light up.
