On Thursday, the company announced that its assembly plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, will stop producing the company’s fully electric SUV ID.4 starting mid-April. Instead, the focus will shift to producing the new generation of Atlas models, a best-selling gasoline-powered SUV.

All of that plus the substantial price tag and their stupid subscription service.

I would have been very interested in an electric VW(loved my old Passat), but they completely botched the rollout of their ID series.
