Starting list prices for both models are 20,000 yuan lower than at their May launches, when the ID. UNYX 06 and ID. UNYX 07 started at 149,900 yuan and 129,900 yuan, respectively.
A key addition is a LiDAR-equipped driver-assistance system powered by the Journey 6H chip from Horizon Robotics (HKEX: 9660), enabling NOA (Navigation on Autopilot) on city streets.
The updated ID. UNYX 07 offers vision-only and LiDAR-based driver-assistance systems, supporting highway and city navigation assistance, respectively.
The LiDAR-based system supports parking-space-to-parking-space assisted driving and can handle scenarios including U-turns at urban intersections, passing oncoming vehicles on narrow roads and recognizing access gates.
The ID. UNYX 07 measures 4,853 mm in length, 1,852 mm in width and 1,566 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,826 mm. It uses a motor with a maximum output of 170 kW.
The ID. UNYX 06 has a more compact coupe SUV body, measuring 4,663 mm long, 1,860 mm wide and 1,617 mm tall, with a wheelbase of 2,766 mm.
The upgrade follows Volkswagen Anhui's previously announced product plans. When it launched the ID. UNYX 07 and refreshed ID. UNYX 06 in May, the company said it would add higher-end variants equipped with LiDAR in the second half of the year.
Both models also gain 77.5 kWh battery options, bringing maximum CLTC range to 630 km for the ID. UNYX 06 and 670 km for the ID. UNYX 07.
The latest updates come less than 5 months after the models' May launches, reflecting Volkswagen Anhui's strategy of using faster product upgrades and price adjustments to win over Chinese EV buyers.
The Volkswagen joint venture updated the ID. UNYX 08 in September. Its limited-time starting price fell to 189,900 yuan, 40,000 yuan below the price at its initial launch in April.
