In good times or bad, people need their vehicles. Over the past few months, #volkswagen of America has worked with dealers on a new shopping and buying experience so our customers can shop from home. Next month, #volkswagen will unveil its first electric #suv, the #id4 -- and a new system that allows customers to reserve their car.
The #volkswagen reservation platform will make its debut on Sept. 23rd, immediately following the reveal of the all-new, zero-tailpipe emission #volkswagen #id4 electric vehicle at 11 a.m. EDT. on VW.com. Customers who want to experience the future of driving will be able to reserve an #id4 before it hits dealer showrooms later this year.
The easy-to-use platform lets #volkswagen fans reserve an ID.4 in a few simple steps. The platform also includes shopping tools such as a range estimator, payment tool and dealer selection to assist shoppers with finding an #id4 model and making the transition to #ev ownership.
“Our online reservations portal will give those who are ready to make the switch to an #ev #suv a place at the front of the line,” said #duncanmovassaghi, executive vice president, sales and marketing for #volkswagen. “We’re excited to share the future of #volkswagen with the #id4. It’s a compelling, zero direct emissions alternative to the compact SUVs on the market today.”
Once a user has built their vehicle, they can secure their place in line with a fully refundable $100 reservation payment. As vehicle production starts, our reservation holders will be invited to lock their configuration and confirm their order with an additional $400 deposit. From placing a reservation, to production and through delivery, the customer can see where they stand and when they can expect their ID. 4 to arrive at their preferred local VW dealer. At that time, the customer can negotiate the sale price with their dealer and complete their purchase.
Volkswagen plans to offer the #id4 electric vehicle across all 50 states, and throughout its network of more than 600 dealers. The reservation platform will also invite owners and prospective #ev customers to become insiders by allowing them to subscribe to Volkswagen’s latest #ev news as it plans to sell 26 million electric vehicles globally by 2029.
