VW to stop making its top electric vehicle in the US

10 Apr 2026   
Volkswagen said on April 9 it will end production of the ID.4 electric SUV out of ‌its Tennessee plant this month, citing a challenging time for the U.S. electric vehicle market.

Automakers have scaled back or canceled ​production of EVs after the federal ⁠government last fall ended the use ​of a $7,500 tax credit toward the purchase ​of an EV.

Volkswagen is shifting production at its Chattanooga, Tennessee, plant to its higher-volume gas-powered ​SUVs, the Atlas and Atlas Cross ​Sport.

The automaker will launch production this summer of a ‌redesigned ⁠version of its Atlas midsize SUV, scheduled to go on sale in 2027.

Volkswagen is planning a future version of ​the ID.4 ​for the ⁠North American market, but did not provide timing on its ​release.

The current inventory of ID.4 ​is ⁠expected to last into 2027.

Volkswagen will still offer ​the ID. Buzz electric van in the U.S. market.
