AutoExec Summary
Volkswagen’s flagship electric model project, codenamed ‘Trinity,’ has been delayed until 2032, pushing back its original 2028 launch date. The decision to utilize existing vehicle platforms for upcoming models led to this setback. The new vehicle, intended to be the first to use the new electric-specific Scalable Systems Platform (SSP), will now be preceded by the 2029 Volkswagen Golf featuring the new-generation technology. Despite the delay, Volkswagen is planning to introduce successors to the ID.4 and a T-Sport small SUV using the SSP underpinnings in the coming years. This delay comes as part of Volkswagen Group’s strategy to streamline production and future model development.
Brands mentioned: Volkswagen, Porsche, Audi, Skoda.
