Last week, Volkswagen showed a couple of sketches of its future ID-badged all-electric sedan Today, German automaker unveiled fuller images of the ID. Aero, still in concept form, but looking manifestly like a production model, or something close to it anyways.

The good news for our market is that the car will be offered in our market, as confirmed by Thomas Tetzlaff, Volkswagen Canada's director of public relations.

Which is also when Volkswagen tells us to expect the ID. Aero production version to hit the market.
