There’s the Tesla Model X, and then Volkswagen’s I.D. Crozz a self-driving electric SUV. It’s powered by a pair of electric motors – a 101-horsepoer motor powers the front axle, while the second 201-horsepower motor sends power to the rear. Both motors work in conjunction with an 83 kWh battery to enable it to go from 0-62 mph in under 6 seconds and achieve a range of up to 311 miles when fully charged. Plug the vehicle into a 150 kW DC electrical charging system., and you’ll have up to 80% capacity in just 30 minutes. Continue reading for another video, more pictures and information.
“As with the I.D. Buzz and I.D. hatchback, the battery is mounted in the floor to lower the vehicle’s center of gravity. There are also two transmissions in use and an electric propshaft which can transfer power between the axles depending on which has the most traction. As with the previous I.D. concepts, the I.D. Crozz isn’t just special for the company because of its electric powertrain; it is also fully-autonomous. To allow it to drive itself, Volkswagen has outfitted the concept with four laser scanners that pop out of the Crozz’s glass roof the moment the driver switches to autonomous driving,” reports Car Scoops.
