Recently, the ID. AURA L5 officially entered the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's latest product public announcement list, while FAW-Volkswagen simultaneously released official images of the new car. As the second pure electric model in the ID. AURA series and the first pure electric family sedan, the new car is positioned as an "intelligent large liftback, super family sedan," and together with the ID. AURA T6 will form FAW-Volkswagen's "new energy twin stars," creating a new pattern of parallel development in both sedans and SUVs, injecting new momentum into FAW-Volkswagen's electrification transformation.
The ID. AURA L5 highly restores the design essence of the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show ID. AURA concept car, carrying the "practical naturalism" philosophy throughout the entire vehicle. The new car was jointly created by Chinese and German design teams, based on the core travel demands of Chinese families, deeply integrating Volkswagen's classic genes with youthful aesthetics, presenting a design style that combines practicality, technology, and a sense of sportiness.
The new car adopts a "flowing water shaping" design language, with a short overhang and long wheelbase ratio outlining a stretched and smooth coupe posture. The body dimensions are 4883×1881×1506mm, with a wheelbase of 2820mm, and a "space utilization rate" of 84.4%, fully ensuring interior comfort while maintaining a low-slung dynamic stance. The front face continues Volkswagen's iconic U-shaped design, with smart eye lamp clusters paired with slender light strips and 3D luminous particles, presenting an approachable visual expression. The side is equipped with true frameless doors, semi-hidden door handles, and hidden waterlines, making the body surfaces more concise and smooth, creating a "water surface without traces" visual effect. The rear further enhances the vehicle's recognizability through 3D stereoscopic taillights and multi-layered light and shadow design.
As a core highlight, the ID. AURA L5 deeply integrates fastback aesthetics with pragmatism. The electric liftback tailgate has an opening angle of over 70° and an opening width of over 1000mm, greatly improving the convenience of loading and unloading large items, breaking the loading capacity limitations of traditional three-box sedans.
The new car offers six exterior colors: white, gray, silver, purple, gold, and blue, meeting the personalized aesthetic needs of young users. In terms of intelligence, some models of the ID. AURA L5 will be equipped with LiDAR, making users' daily travel more relaxed and convenient.
From concept car to production car, the ID. AURA L5 provides Chinese consumers with a new pure electric family sedan choice through its youthful design, loading convenience brought by the large liftback, and intelligent configurations. With the release of official images, more product information about the new car will be revealed successively.
