Volkswagen first started selling a wide variety of electric cars from 2013, with the first high mass produced electric car being the E-Golf. Since the start of this, it has expanded massively with the latest model being the ID.7, which is known for its long term efficiency and a high level of comfort.

Volkswagen has named itself on being the most reliable car brands, this is shown as it leads the European BEV market with the most units sold, selling 217,000 more BEVs than second place. This statistic shows the brand’s strong position in the market and its commitment to sustainability and innovation. The Volkswagen brand is also one of the largest car brands in the world, cementing their position on being a strong force in the BEV market.
