"ID" for the Volkswagen family, symbolizing their pure electric energy model series, but also a new pure electric energy series, in this platform, only to create the Volkswagen family of pure electric vehicle model, so the ID series of products is not the process of oil to electricity, but really has a pure electric structure and energy mode of the model.
In the Volkswagen ID series, ID.4 and ID.6 are the two earliest models, with the continuous layout of Volkswagen, there is another model on the market in the ID series, this model is ID.3. From the naming code of this model, it can be seen that the model is lower than the ID.4 and ID.6 in terms of positioning, and the size of the ID.3 will be relatively small.
This model is a hatchback, and the body size of the Golf is not much different, so some people will think that this is an electric version of the Golf. In fact, it is not, the emergence of ID.3 is only to enrich the layout of Volkswagen's pure electric vehicle model, and the platform born of the model, as well as the energy model, handling experience, body structure and traditional internal combustion engine models are different.
The appearance of the Volkswagen ID.3 looks small and exquisite, and the model carries a family-style design style, which is similar to the design of other products of the Volkswagen ID. The pure electric energy mode of the model itself makes it unnecessary for an intake grille, so a transverse through light strip is used at the front face of the model, and the airflow evacuation port is used below the front face.
The side of the body looks relatively saturated, because the hatchback structure of this model makes the body shorter, but the body height is sufficient. The shorter front and rear suspension of the pure electric model is also reflected in this model, so the model can reserve a large wheelbase, after all, the motor does not need to occupy too much cabin space, so there is more space for users in the car.
The taillights at the rear of the car have the traditional design style of the Volkswagen family, not the through-line design, so the taillights will look familiar. In the rear of this model, there is a black color block area, in fact, this black color matching part is the rear tailgate of the model, after opening the tailgate, you can see the tail box space inside. But the threshold of this tailgate is slightly higher, and if the suitcase is too heavy, it may be a little difficult to access, of course, this is for the little sister.
After entering the car, its interior atmosphere creation has a simple feature, the model is actually not very good in terms of materials, still can not be separated from the Volkswagen family in the groove of materials. However, the layered portrayal and color matching in the car have created a strong scientific and technological atmosphere, and should be liked by many young sisters.
In addition to the uniform distribution of the air conditioner outlet, the entire center console of the model is the distribution of the display screen. The display in the middle of the center console is a floating design, with a 10-inch design, and there is a row of touch buttons distributed under the display. The dashboard inside the car is 5.3 inches, which is more convenient to use with a multi-function steering wheel.
In addition, it is the power and endurance of the model, and the power of this model is unified throughout the series of models, and there is no difference, including the same endurance. The models are currently on sale with a single rear axle motor, the motor power is 170 horsepower, the total torque of the electric motor provides 310 Nm, and the range of the model is 430 km, which can meet the daily needs of the car.
summary:
In fact, this model only looks relatively small in appearance, but the reservation of wheelbase provides a generous seating space for the car, at least the rear leg space of this model is much more spacious than the Golf, and will have a certain degree of riding comfort. However, in terms of configuration, it is more general, but in addition to the configuration, the value given by the model in terms of power is in place, and the response of the motor itself is very direct, and there is no need for a complex transmission mechanism and compression action, so the power of the model will often be more directly improved, with a very excellent power reserve
