That would be my interpretation. That the traditional Golfs and Tiguans will continue to be delivered with ICE/Hybrid drivetrains but that any pure EV model of an ICE car would always be a compromised design because of how radically different they can be built. So even if they make the ID look like a golf in the body it’s a radically different car, and if they still make the golf they shouldn’t be selling this under the same name. As the article says, the interior will have much more space for example. Calling it eGolf might be confusing, and might be underselling it.
