cenews – September 9, 2026. It all starts with a small movement of the right thumb. A press of a steering wheel button, a distinct resistance, an audible click. No capacitive surface that either doesn’t respond at all when maneuvering or immediately triggers the wrong function. In the ID Polo, this return to tactile feedback is almost more important than the illuminated VW emblem on the front, as are functional window switch buttons and classic controls for frequently used functions. After the capacitive detours of earlier ID models, it almost feels like a public apology.
