Frequently Asked Questions

How fast is Volkswagen ID.3 Pure Performance

The Volkswagen ID.3 Pure Performance is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 110 kW (148 hp) of power and 310 Nm of torque.

This enables a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 8.9 seconds (ranked â„–423 out of 596 electric vehicles) and a top speed of 160 km/h.

Real-world range of Volkswagen ID.3 Pure Performance

The real-world range of the Volkswagen ID.3 Pure Performance is 268–328 km (ranked №428 out of 596 electric vehicles) — depending on several factors, including:

  • Speed: Higher speeds deplete the battery faster.
  • Temperature: Extreme cold and hot weather impacts range.
  • Terrain: Hilly or mountainous terrain reduces range.
  • Driving style: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
  • Use of features: Features like climate control and media system also affect range.

It's important to remember that these are just estimates, and your actual range may vary. It's always best to factor in these various factors when planning your trip and be prepared for potential charging stops.

Volkswagen ID.3 Pure Performance charge port type?

The Volkswagen ID.3 Pure Performance 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.
