At Auto China 2024, the Volkswagen Group and its brands demonstrate their innovative strength with an impressive line-up of China specific products. Six world premieres and five China premieres are the highlights among the 44 car and motorbike models on display. Among the 44 cars on display, 18 will be electrified NEV models.

Through a strong ‘In China, for China’ approach, the Group set the course for accelerated technical localization, as well as faster production and development, to ensure it continues to offer tailor made products in China now and in the future. The transformation is well underway, and the market-wide product offensive with a focus on smart, connected vehicles tailored to Chinese consumers is accelerating to ‘China speed’.

The Volkswagen brand will reveal a concept car tailored for Chinese consumers. A new, progressive member of the ID. family– to be produced by Volkswagen Anhui - will also make its debut, and expand the brand’s all-electric ID. portfolio in China.

Audi is debuting multiple all-new BEV models, highlighting its ongoing determination to deliver premium electric mobility with deepened commitment to China. Its first market-specific model based on the PPE platform and new E3 1.2 architecture, the Q6L e-tron, will notably make its world premiere at the ‘Group Media Night’.

Porsche will present the world premiere of the 8th variant of Taycan in China, which is tailored specifically for the Chinese market. The new model combines higher performance with fully improved luxury and comfort equipment, aiming to meet the needs of Chinese consumers for a more powerful and practical sports car. The all-electric Macan will also make its China debut. With its characteristic Porsche performance, progressive yet timeless design, long-distance range and high everyday practicality, the all-electric Macan is the perfect interpretation of an all-electric luxury sports SUV.

Under its ‘In China, for China’ strategy, the Volkswagen Group is accelerating its development to ‘China speed’. It is strengthening its local development capacities for e-mobility, digitalization and autonomous driving and accelerating its decision-making and development processes in the region
