Milton Keynes – Volkswagen’s all-electric ID.7 Tourer has been named the UK’s best large family car by Parkers, repeating the success of its fastback sibling in 2024. This latest accolade marks the fourth award for Volkswagen’s flagship electric estate this year, reinforcing its position at the forefront of family-friendly EVs.
Keith Adams, Editor of Parkers, praised the ID.7 Tourer, saying: “The Volkswagen ID.7 Tourer is the complete package for larger families. It combines huge interior space with excellent real-world electric range and effortless refinement, all wrapped up in a design that’s both elegant and practical. It’s proof that you don’t have to compromise these days when electrifying your family car.”
The Parkers New Car Awards draw on hundreds of expert reviews throughout the year, offering independent advice to the car-buying public across all budgets and lifestyles.
This recognition adds to an impressive 2025 haul for the ID.7 Tourer, which has already been named Best Electric Estate in the What Car? Awards, won the What Car? Electric Car of the Year, and earned Best EV at the Leasing.com Awards. The model was also shortlisted for the Caravan and Motorhome Club Towcar of the Year award, in the under-1,300 kg caravan category.
Emma Lakey, Product Manager for the ID.7 family at Volkswagen UK, commented: “It’s always great when authoritative motoring experts recognise a car with praise and awards, and we are delighted that the ID.7 Tourer is deservedly earning so many plaudits this year. Both the estate and fastback versions are beautifully designed, efficient, and brilliant for long-distance driving, with lots of practical features appreciated by real-world family and business customers.”
The UK ID.7 line-up includes the Pro Match Plus, Pro S Match Plus, and GTX Plus 4MOTION, all available in both fastback and estate (Tourer) body styles. Maximum range reaches up to 433 miles (WLTP combined, for the ID.7 Pro S Match Plus), with prices starting from £51,035 (on-the-road, including VAT).
With its combination of spacious practicality, long-range capability, and elegant design, the ID.7 Tourer is proving that large family cars can be fully electric without compromise.
