Volkswagen is all for sustainability and using sustainable materials when it comes to its product portfolio
The automaker is stressing to make its ID. lineup more eco-friendly by incorporating sustainable materials in the interiors of the EV models
Electric vehicles such as the ID.3, ID.4, ID.5 and ID.7 will get additional recycling materials this year
The company shares that it will use Seaqual yarn as a seat cover material which is made from 10% marine debris and 90% recycled PES yarn
The carbon emissions during the production of these are almost one third lower against conventional cover materials
Volkswagen has extensively used recycled and environmentally friendly materials in its ID.Buzz EV
The company also adds that it no longer uses chrome in the ID. Buzz as the production of chrome harms the environment
It has replaced chrome with a liquid paint with chrome look that also has a bio-based binder
By the end of this decade, the brand is aiming to cut carbon emissions per vehicle by 40%
