Car Deal of the Day: a potent 335bhp Volkswagen ID.7 GTX for a rock bottom price
Generous equipment
335bhp, four-wheel drive, 364-mile range
Only £321.46 a month
It's easy to get excited about the Volkswagen ID.7, as it's an excellent electric saloon. It's often well priced, too, but this is the first time we've spotted the racy range-topping ID.7 GTX Plus version being the cheapest ID.7 available. Advertisement - Article continues below
Scouring the Auto Express Find A Car service, we found Jurni Leasing offering the warmed-up electric saloon for a cool £321.46 a month.
It's a two-year deal requiring a £3,857.52 initial payment, while mileage is capped at 5,000 a year. Need more? It won't sting you – an 8,000-mile deal can be had for just £13.65 extra a month.
The ID.7 is one of our favourite electric saloons, proving to be a very comfortable cruiser with decent range. The cabin, meanwhile, is a return to the days of Volkswagen offering quality and plush-feeling interiors, an area where other ID models have been found sorely lacking.
Naturally, the GTX Plus takes the ID.7 to the next level. The standard car is superbly well equipped, but this high-spec variant adds a range of extra niceties.
Sporty exterior styling, red-piped and GTX-branded Alcantara seats, ventilated massage front seats and heated rear seats, 20-inch alloy wheels and a 12-speaker Harman Kardon sound system are thrown in, while the standard paint colour is mean-looking metallic black.
Another feature added as standard is DCC – Dynamic Chassis Control. This allows you to tweak the suspension either for a softer or firmer ride, while 335bhp from the twin electric motors gives meaty performance.
Being the ID.7 range-topper, the GTX Plus gets the larger 86kWh battery pack, bringing a range of 364 miles.

Car maker Lotus says it has no plans to close English factory
LONDON, June 28 (Reuters) - British-based sportscar company Lotus said it has no plans to close a factory in eastern England, following a report in the Financial Times which said manufacturing there could end with the loss of 1,300 jobs. "Lotus Cars is continuing normal operations, and there are no plans to close the factory," Lotus said in an emailed statement on Saturday. "We are actively exploring strategic options to enhance efficiency and ensure global competitiveness in the evolving market." Lotus is owned by China's Geely ( and Malaysia's Etika Automotive and the brand produces cars in Britain and China. Any closure of the factory in Hethel, Norfolk, would have been a blow for Britain's auto industry which is suffering as a result of tariffs imposed by the United States. Britain's vehicle production dropped 32.8% from a year ago industry data showed on Friday. The Financial Times said the government had intervened to signal it would offer Lotus support after news emerged that the factory could shut, but the Department for Business and Trade did not confirm that. "The government does not comment on speculation or the commercial affairs of private companies," a spokesperson for the department said on Saturday. While Britain has negotiated a trade deal with the U.S. which will reduce the tariffs for a quota of exported vehicles, it does not come into force until the end of June. Meanwhile, car makers have reported lower output and exports to both the U.S. and the European Union, according to economic data.

Lando Norris storms to Austrian F1 GP pole as angry Verstappen slumps to seventh
Lando Norris claimed pole position for the Austrian Grand Prix by half a second at the Red Bull Ring, beating Ferrari's Charles Leclerc into second and his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri into third. It was the perfect comeback for the British driver after his disappointment at having to retire when he crashed into Piastri at the last round in Canada. Red Bull's Max Verstappen was struggling for grip and finished in seventh. Lewis Hamilton was fourth for Ferrari and George Russell fifth for Mercedes. For Norris this was just the result he required after his title hopes took a battering when he made the misjudged move against Piastri in Montreal, dropping him to 22 points behind the Australian. At the Red Bull Ring this weekend Norris had insisted his error in Canada had ultimately resulted in a positive outcome, that he and the team emerged stronger now the seemingly unavoidable clash had finally happened. That is credible but it is inescapable that misjudgments like that in Canada could cost him the title. For all the psychological compartmentalising and rationalisations, that must weigh heavy. He said in Montreal he knew he had to make fewer errors, a theme he returned to in Austria. 'I've been making more mistakes and I've been behind,' he said. 'That's been clear. It's very close between us and Oscar's certainly been a bit more comfortable than I have this season, that's the way it is and I've had to try to improve and step up more.' Certainly he did so in qualifying with a lap that was all but untouchable. Notably the McLaren team principal, Andrea Stella, said the crash would have left Norris's confidence bruised and that the team would rally round him. They are still seeking to find a way to adjust the car to suit him and their upgrades this weekend to the front aero, rear aero and, crucially for Norris, the front suspension, to improve the feel he has for the front of the car, look to have paid off. Certainly Norris looked comfortable in qualifying, which has been his achilles heel this season. In Austria, it all appeared to come together and he looked in complete control from the off. Norris had dominated the first two sessions of qualifying and while Piastri opened the running for the first hot laps in Q3, he managed only a tidy lap that was swiftly eclipsed by his teammate. Norris was quicker in all three sectors and over two-tenths up on the Australian on top of the time sheetsin 1min 04.268sec, while Verstappen struggled a six-tenths back in sixth. For the final runs Russell improved, as did Leclerc, and Piastri knew he could do better but Norris once more looked confident. The British driver went quicker still through every sector with a lap of 1:03.971, half a second up on Leclerc, an absolute chasm. A late yellow flag when Pierre Gasly spun was costly for both Piastri and Verstappen, who both had to back off, with the Dutchman, struggling all afternoon, left almost a second back. An unhappy Verstappen described his car as so lacking in grip in every type of corner that it was 'completely undriveable'. The Dutchman will be dissatisfied by the result, especially after Red Bull brought what is likely to be their last major upgrade of the season to the race with a revision to the floor of the car it was hoped would help address the balance issues that have plagued it all year. 1.

The second session was red-flagged for 10 minutes when, as had occurred in Japan earlier this season, trackside grass caught fire, ignited by the sparks from the titanium skid blocks beneath the car.
