ALL-NEW EV VOLKSWAGEN ID.3 PREMIERE REVIEW EXTERIOR INTERIOR

EV Channels Review

The Volkswagen ID.3 marks a significant step for the brand, aiming to be the electric car for the masses. Visually, it blends retro cues reminiscent of the Beetle with modern design, featuring short overhangs and a long wheelbase that creates a surprisingly spacious interior, comparable to a Passat. The reviewer highlights the innovative MEB platform, which allows for a low center of gravity and efficient packaging, including rear-wheel drive for better weight distribution. Positives include the sustainable, animal-free interior options and the potential for an attractive price point due to the platform's scalability. However, the interior's software and infotainment system are noted as unfinished prototypes, and the rear bench's recline angle might not suit everyone for long journeys. Despite these points, the ID.3 appears promising as a practical, well-priced electric vehicle, with battery options catering to various needs and driving profiles.
