In the exterior there is a floating roof, front and rear light bars, and illuminated VW badges. Physical buttons are also present instead of capacitive touch buttons used in earlier ID. models. Cupholders are in front of a container using real eucalyptus leaves. A 13-inch touchscreen and a 11-inch digital instrument cluster are present.^[4][6]

The "Pure Positive" design language debuts with the new ID. Cross. The concept version's paint job is a shade of green named Urban Jungle and the interior is in a shade of beige dubbed Vanilla Chai.^[7]

Just like with the ID. Polo, the ID. Cross uses a front-mounted APP290 Axial Parallel Position permanent-magnet synchronous motor which can produce 114 horsepower (85 kW; 116 PS), 133 horsepower (99 kW; 135 PS) paired with the 37-kWh LFP battery, or 208 horsepower (155 kW; 211 PS) with the 52-kWh NMC battery. As the name suggests, the motor produces a torque output of approximately 290 Nm (around 214 lb-ft), providing strong acceleration for urban driving. The ID. Cross is based on the MEB+ platform used for front-wheel-drive vehicles, also shared with the ID. Polo, Cupra Raval, and Škoda Epiq.^[2][4][6]
