Frequently Asked Questions

How fast is Volkswagen ID.3 1st Edition

The Volkswagen ID.3 1st Edition can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds (ranked №319 out of 586 electric vehicles) and reach a top speed of 160 km/h.

The car’s powertrain delivers up to 150 kW (201 hp) of power and 310 Nm of torque.

Real-world range of Volkswagen ID.3 1st Edition

Volkswagen ID.3 1st Edition achieves a real-world range of 329–402 km, placing it at №316 among 586 electric vehicles. However, this range is subject to several influences:

  • Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
  • Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
  • Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
  • Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
  • Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.

It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.

Utilize the interactive EV Navigation map for trip planning assistance.

Volkswagen ID.3 1st Edition charge port type?

The Volkswagen ID.3 1st Edition in Europe comes with a CCS Type 2 charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 11 kW, resulting in approximately 62 km of range added per hour of charging.

For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 100 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.
