Volkswagen ID.3 2022 electric car owner review

Peter M drives a Volkswagen ID.3 Family Pro 58kWh 2022 electric car.

This is Peter’s first electric car, he’s owned the Volkswagen ID.3 from new and drives 5,000-10,000 miles annually. The current mileage of the car is between 1,000-5,000 miles and he achieves 242 miles range from a full charge.

 

Why did you choose the Volkswagen ID.3?

Mid 2021 it was the best one I could find at a price I was prepared to pay. Others were faster or went further but more expensive; others were cheaper but with less range. This one hit the then Government grant too!
