VW Id Software 3.0 - App, Infotainment, scheduled charging, Navigation with charging

Very impressive how Volkswagen has optimized the Software.

I'm the owner of a 2021 ID.4 1st Edition in the USA and I'm very hopeful after watching this video. Thank you! I'm excited about the improved route planning.

[@andykphoto]

Man, that all looks great. Even if I don't have the fanciest park assist, and lane changing cruise control. That improved route planning and preheating the battery on AC will be GREAT for next winter! :) Assuming we get this update in the US before next winter... My ID4 Pro S AWD awaits it! :)

[@robhallam8047]

Still following you my friend but have finally lost my patience and cancelled my ID3 Max Pro Performance order. Ordered 7th July 2021 and most recent update is a July build but not guaranteed so an Autumn delivery at best. Thankfully my lease company had pre-ordered some Borns and I've secured one of these for a July delivery (V3 in Quasar Grey with 20" Hurricane machined aerowheels)...haven't lost my enthusiasm for EV ownership and will be counting down the days until July!! Keep up the great work....

[@jiminholland1144]

ID.3 owner here, so thanks greatly for the update on 3.0. Yeah, it’d be nice to get hardware over the air as well as software, but clearly it’s not realistic, and 1st Movers like us absolutely have to know that being the 1st doesn’t mean getting everything, like the first gen iPhone people or the first to buy laptops. We’re the Guinea pigs, but I don’t care - I have a great car, it’s a major jump from ICE and mostly, I actually have one instead of waiting a year (and my resale value is super high, so I could trade up easily if I wanted to).

[@caterpro]

Excellent overview of the new features. Thank you.

[@olaflanfermann7343]

Hello, you can select the charger (like Ionity) while you are in the navigation. Select a Charger on the right and the Setup on the left bottom. There you can change a lot of options related to the charger. Nice info BTW. Looking forward to the update. But most important is the Battery strategy in winter.

There’s some new interesting stuff, like profil, this is nice 👍 But as 1st Mover I still found deeply frustrating to be leftover regarding Park Assist Plus and all the thing done with the additional sensors… I assumed to maybe have defaults by getting a 1st Edition, but not missing parts… This is really annoying to say the least

[@carlomorischi3435]

To make me use the integrated sat nav VW has to do several things: 1. Better traffic data with real time information and re-routing 2. Better UI with nicer map colours (Google maps style, not 1990s style) 3. More fluid map scrolling 4. Point of interest integration (very complete as Google Maps) 5. Destination forwarding from the phone using the "share" button from every app, as Tesla does 6. Battery pre-heating integration 7. Better route planner with more options as ABRP 8. Real-time charger availability informations and rerouting 9. Charger stop planning based on statistical data to avoid charging stations that are often occupied 10. Real-time suggestions on the instrument cluster on the optimal speed to arrive at the next charger 11. Speed control infos with crowdsourced data also on mobile speed controls 12. Opening times for businesses and alert messages if you route to a place that is about to close 13. Calendar integration for auto-routing to next events by connecting it directly with Google Cal/iCloud, separated for each driver's account 14. Ease of parking at destination icon like Google Maps and proactive suggestions on underground parking options 15. Integration with parking payment system to pay for parking when at destination with few simple clicks from the infotainment 16. The route planner should take in account every possible variable like temperature, elevation, weather condition, wind, battery temp, driving style, battery health, air pressure, HVAC system and so on

[@DeckAndBlackerDJs]

VW is not a software company, they will never be able to develop a navigation component that can compete with the likes of Maps, Waze,... Instead they should focus on better integrating and collaborating with those third parties and for example allow an external app via Carplay or Android Auto to read the state of charge of the vehicle and consumption so that app can use that data in order to calculate stops along the way. It's still a bit of niche right now but as more electric cars get on the road I'm sure Waze, Google, Apple,... will implement features concerning chargers etc

[@carlomorischi3435]

I don't understand why the route planner "range at arrival" slider only goes up to 100km, and why it's in KM and not with the SoC like ABRP. I might want, for example, to arrive at destination with 70% SoC remaining! Also, this slider shouldn't be hidden in settings, it should be easily accessible when planning the trip, and also by clicking on the destination icon on the trip preview when the trip is already planned, since for different trips I might want significantly different arrival SoC!

[@neilcraighead]

Hi we are in the UK, have noted in the media it’s stating we have to take the ID3 to workshop for the 2.4 update in addition they will install a new 12v battery, when calling they are not aware of this update.

Huh, I had gotten the impression that it *would* preheat the battery if you explicitly navigated to a charging station and that this was need to ensure max. effect. I've only tested speed charging once and didn't bother with navigation. I got 53 kW on a station that could deliver 150. SoC at arrival a bit under 50% and I had driven 20km in 80/100/90 km/h shortly before arrival. Is that expected?

So we drove anyway and the autobahn was only closed for the other side. So for me the navigation from VW is not usable sadly.

@@BatteryLife What version of ID3 is the one in the video?

[@MrAeneus]

what is the point hyping about rumors months and months in advance? ID.3 first movers will be lucky if they manage to update to 3.0 by winter.

Exactly what you are stating. Had enough of VW. Today terminated my contract (lease) because car remains with many faults. First time VW rider, last time VW rider.

@@AlanTov lol. 12 volt battery to start with. Oké this is fixed in more recent updates. But then; timed charging does not work, cockpit display is flikkering yellow/blue at certain points. Very very slow infotainment as compared with other ID.3s. Then VW promised regular updates, the latest I received is older than my daughter of 8 months.... As a cherry on top; VW releases new software 3.0 which is not fully compatible with the 1st editions. E.g. VW stating thank you for bending over as being a beta tester, no fuck off.

The 3.0 is fully compatible with the 1st editions and VW promised to release regular updates for 2022, not for 2021. I don’t have any problems with my ID4 with software version 2.3 and scheduled charging will be added with version 2.4 next month. Not bad for such a cheap car in my opinion, no other car offers OTA updates in that price class.

@@lorenzmuller4000 it is compatible, but it's lacking features due to missing hardware. And last I checked we are living at the end of April 2022 and still no update. VW delivered incomplete products so yes they provide OTA. That scheduled charging is working for some doesn't mean the feature is working for the total population. Such a fundamental feature...
