Volkswagen is one of the earliest car companies in the field of electrification in the traditional old car companies, and in 2015, the Volkswagen Group released the MEB platform exclusively developed for electric vehicles for the first time. In 2021, a key year of electrification transformation, the SAIC Volkswagen brand launched three pure electric models in one go, of which our protagonist Volkswagen ID.3 today is the third player to debut.
Recently, the 2022 Volkswagen ID.3 was officially listed, and the new car was still launched with two configurations, and the guiding price was 16.5288~ 179.288 million yuan. As a regular annual redesign, the new car in the interior and exterior design, the configuration level has not changed, mainly to reduce the 100 km of power consumption from 13.9 kWh per 100 km to 13.1 kWh per 100 km, while making certain adjustments in terms of price, let's understand how its specific performance is.
Exterior design
The Volkswagen ID.3 is currently the smallest model in the SAIC Volkswagen ID. series, and the car follows simplicity in terms of exterior design, as if it were a work of another dimension, both avant-garde and somewhat cute. Among them, the headlight group of the front face of the new car all uses LED light sources, the slender headlight shape has a deep visual effect, and the LED light strip that runs through the middle part is also one of the mainstream design trends at present. At the same time, the car adopts the closed front face design unique to the pure electric model, in order to make the front part of the car more agile, the new car also adds a polygonal embossed texture at the bottom of the front bumper as an embellishment.
In terms of body size, the specific length, width and height of the new model are 4261×1778×1568 mm, and the wheelbase is 2765 mm. Its body size is not much different from the Golf, and the car adopts a short front/rear suspension, long wheelbase design concept, and the longitudinal performance of the cockpit will have more advantages than the golf of the same level.
The rear design of the new car is relatively simple, the all-black tail cover and the black roof are integrated visually, and the C-pillar part also adds a polygonal texture and color block, which adds a little agility to the whole car. There is no shortage of LED light sources in the angular tail light group on the left and right sides, which is also an indispensable element to conform to the current trend.
Interior design
The Volkswagen ID.3 also follows a minimalist design idea in terms of interior design, and the atmosphere of the vehicle is young and avant-garde and has a strong scientific and technological atmosphere. Among them, the new car is equipped with a 5.3-inch LCD display screen in front of the main driver, although the size is not large, but the internal functions can be clearly displayed, the virtual reality head-up digital display system is a highlight of the car, the dynamic arrow guidance of the sense of science and technology is sufficient, the visual aspect is also more intuitive. In addition, the new car is also equipped with a 10-inch floating display screen and a built-in MOS on-board intelligent connection system, which can meet the necessary network connection needs when driving.
The Volkswagen ID.3 interior seats are wrapped in a mix of leather and fabric materials, and the functions are provided with electric adjustment of the main driver's seat and heating of the front seats. Among them, the interior padding of the front seat of the new car is moderately soft and hard, and the asymmetrical texture and two-color collocation make the seat appear fresh and elegant in terms of vision.
The rear seats of the new car are of the same level as the front row in terms of material use and workmanship, and each position is equipped with independent headrests, and the sides have a certain degree of invertedness, and the wrapping feeling is not bad. At the same time, thanks to the advantages of the pure electric platform, the central floor of the rear row of the car is fully flat, but the longitudinal length is slightly insufficient.
dynamical system
In terms of power, the Volkswagen ID.3 adopts a rear motor + rear-wheel drive layout that is extremely rare in the same class, and the maximum output power of the electric motor is 125 kW and the peak torque is 310 Nm. It is also equipped with a ternary lithium battery with a capacity of 57.3 kWh, and the CLTC has a pure electric range of 450 km.
Vehicle configuration and purchase recommendations
As a regular annual redesign, the new Volkswagen ID.3 will focus on the power aspect of the adjustment, in which the new car changed from the previous NEDC to THE CLTC, the cruising range was also increased from 430 km to 450 km, and the power consumption of the new car was reduced from the previous 13.9 kWh per 100 km to 13.1 kWh per 100 km. The 2022 model is still launched this time there are two configurations, the price range is 16.5288 ~ 17.9288 yuan, and then the uncle will analyze one by one to see which one is more cost-effective?

In contrast, the level and cost performance of Volkswagen ID.3 is insignificant, and this time the model has made a price increase to further reduce its cost performance and product strength, and it is believed that after this operation, the sales data of the model will be reduced to a certain extent.
