JAKARTA - Volkswagen has reaffirmed its commitment to the world's largest automotive market through participation in Auto China 2026. Through the "In China, for China" strategy, Volkswagen presents a series of the latest innovations designed specifically to meet the needs of local consumers, while strengthening its position in an increasingly competitive era of electrification and digitization.
"China is the main driver of our transformation and has an important role in Volkswagen's global ambitions," said Volkswagen Group CEO Oliver Blume in an official statement received, Thursday, April 30.
"The products and technologies we are showcasing at Auto China 2026 are tangible evidence of the strength of our localization strategy," he added.
This step is evident from the largest product offensive of the Volkswagen Group in China. Throughout 2026, more than 20 electrification vehicles will be launched, including pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, to range-extender solutions. In the future, Volkswagen targets up to 50 electrified models in the Chinese market by 2030. This reflects Volkswagen's seriousness in strengthening its position in the electrification era, as well as responding to the growing market needs.
Behind this acceleration, Volkswagen also strengthened its local research and development capabilities. Through collaboration and internal development in China, Volkswagen is now able to deliver technology end-to-end faster. One proof is the development of the L2 Advanced ADAS advanced driving assistance system through CARIZON, which has reached an important milestone with the implementation of features such as Highway Pilot.
In the future, this technology will continue to develop. A number of models that will be launched in the near future will be equipped with more complete L2 Advanced ADAS capabilities, including Navigation on Autopilot (NOA) for use on city roads and toll roads, as well as automatic parking features.
Launch of ID. UNYX 09 and ID. AURA T6
This approach was then realized through various new models, including the ID. UNYX 09 and ID. AURA T6. The ID. AURA T6 from FAW-Volkswagen is the first model from the latest ID. AURA line and enters the highly competitive medium-sized electric SUV segment in China. Built entirely on the locally developed China Electronic Architecture (CEA), this model allows the presence of various modern features such as more advanced Level 2 driving assistance as well as over-the-air (OTA) software updates, so that the vehicle can continue to evolve over time.
Meanwhile, the ID. UNYX 09 from Volkswagen Anhui comes as a large-sized electric sedan with a length of about 5 meters, which combines smart technology with a more intuitive driving experience. This model is equipped with advanced driving assistance systems, high computing capabilities, and AI-based assistants designed to provide a more natural interaction for users.
