Volkswagen Group politics, much like actual politics, are something our weary little brains may never fully fathom. Who gets which tech first from the mainstream brands of Audi, Seat, Skoda and VW itself sometimes feels as random as a village green tombola. Only with fancy engines and platforms wearing the prize numbers, not tins of Quality Street or a fat scented candle. Muddling our brains a little further is the Seat Mii electric. Rather like Skoda"s plug-in Citigo, it arrives over five years later than the really quite similar Volkswagen e-Up. Conversely, the similarly electric Seat el-Born electric hatchback was shown in Geneva many months before we"ll see VW"s own ID.3. The plot thickens.
