Volkswagen ID.3
The updated ID.3 lifts the model into the premium space to justify its pricing.
The ID.3 is good-looking, very spacious for its size and has a decent range. The entry-level Pro model is quite well priced, but it gets expensive after that. A major upgrade is due soon with a new 286hp electric motor that will be more efficient than the existing 204hp unit.
