Volkswagen is going to be showing off its new electric car concept at the Shanghai Motor Show. And we’re sure you’ll remember it for its name. The car maker teased its sixth all-electric car and they’re calling this full-size electric SUV concept the ID ROOMZZ (yes, with two zeds). It’s in good (?) company when it comes to interesting names. The ID ROOMZZ follows the ID, ID Crozz, ID Buzz, ID Vizzion, and ID Buggy. Clearly, someone at VW loves to press the “z” key when they think up names for its all-electric concepts.

The name refers to the new seat configuration in this vehicle. According to VW’s Chief Designer Klaus Bischoff, “The ID ROOMZZ shows us what we can expect from full-size electric SUVs in the future.” The ID ROOMZZ offers case level 4 autonomy, which means it can drive itself “without an active driver.” It’ll also reportedly deliver “high-quality materials” and “customizable light.” A production-ready version is expected to debut in China by 2021.
