Volkswagen is planning to release a fully-electric SUV in China which could possibly compete with Tesla's Model X.

The German car manufacturer said Sunday the ID. ROOMZZ will be introduced at the upcoming Shanghai Auto Show and will be available in 2021.

Volkswagen affirms the zero-emission vehicle can go an estimate of 450 kilometers (280 miles) before the battery has to be recharged. The concept car includes a fully-automatic driving mode which allows seats to be rotated 25 degrees to create a lounge-like atmosphere.

The headline comes one month after Volkswagen's former CEO Martin Winterkorn was charged by U.S. regulators with defrauding investors during its big diesel emissions scandal.

Volkswagen has reported it will improve electric vehicle production to 22 million over the next decade. It made fewer than 50,000 battery-only vehicles last year.
