I forgot to mention in the video, that Google maps said the actual distance I drove was 6 km more. So I drove 427km.

[@fghjfghgj]

so you are alive good we were worried lol

[@paudieb]

So the base model 1st should get 432km based on ID-3-1ST-ProductGuide advertised 5km difference. 5 hrs motorway drive time. thats awesome.

[@Gresteh]

@@paudieb Nope, he drove 427 instead of 421, so the final range was 450 instead of 444, the base ID.3 i'm certain that it will be able to drive even longer due to the lower size rims, perhaps even 10-20km longer or more.

[@Gresteh]

@@EinzigfreierName You mean Google or the car’s odometer? I’d say Google as the maps must be precise in order to be used for GPS tracking and the car’s odometer distance is calculated using the rotation of the wheel and that has a small margin of error.

[@NeilBlanchard]

56MPH - that is more like I can drive, and should give a good range. Man - I *wish* I could buy an ID.3 here in the U.S. Coasting moved the car at essentially zero energy - which extends the range. Regen loses more energy than coasting, and it is not a "magic bullet". Using regen *only* when you need to slow down quickly, is much better than heating up the brakes, of course. And coasting is smoother and you can rest your right foot / leg.

[@NeilBlanchard]

Do you have more information about the other charging operators?

[@martijnfranke5506]

Thanks a lot for this video. I already had plans to buy a 77 kWh ID3 and I was curious about efficiency. This test already convinced me. If I remember correctly at 90 kph it is even more efficient than the Model 3 long range in the video of Bjorn Nyland.

[@Turbo999be]

Larger battery packs can't really be more efficient than smaller one since it has to pull the extra weight of the larger battery pack. It can easily be 150-200kg extra weight.

[@BatteryLife]

Are you sure? Model3 should be more efficient.

[@martijnfranke2809]

@@BatteryLife Thought it did 135 Wh/km. Would have to watch the video again to be 100% sure, but I am quite sure. Also the Model 3 did not manage to get it's WLTP range at 90 kph. Did you already publish the 130 kph test?

[@Macmonkey1000]

@@martijnfranke2809 Bjorn N also got 127 from Kona 64 in similar temps at 90kph so ID3 is definitely at the top of the efficiency tree. I think it could match Kona at lower spec level with smaller wheels. Maybe the Koreans are not magicians after all ;-)

[@martijnfranke5506]

@@Macmonkey1000 The Kona is indeed very efficient at low speeds. From rumours I heard, the ID3 beats it at higher speeds, but I'm curious for the video. I was impressed by the charging speed of the ID3 at 'almost full'. That seams to indicate there is quite some top-buffer in the battery, which also helps longevity.

[@jonathansmith5850]

That milage is very good. In uk your car is claimed to manage 260miles. 444km is 277 miles. Yes it was driving at around 90km (56mph) but that’s how car manufacturers work out their best fuel/elec consumption. Very impressed.

Talk to your local EV NGO and say that we need a nerd mode with precise information on consumption, battery temperature in driver display becauste it is vital for vehicle operation and good maintenance. the VW is really known for their "villain" behaviour so this should be adressed on level on parliaments. Perhaps to the EU Council, they are the shortest route. Demand data that is important to driver and not just what car manufacturer thinks its enough. Its doesnt cost them a thing, and they are using kilometers instead of battery percentage to make it "easier" for consumer and km estimate is not a precise data, its extrapolated by battery percentage and past trip. What if car is stuck in blizzard and we must conserve energy to heat the car for rescue to get as it is known in europe to happen. If i have only kilometer, i could waste not being aware how low the battery is and be in deadly danger.

@@garak451 And a lot of clean energy will be lost and replaced by radioactive coal (or by radioactive fossil gas, just to look a little bit greener), thanks to Angela Merkcoal. Note: before some keyboard warriors start to crank up their guns, please note that I have, just now, in my backyard (just few kms away) the Italy's inventory of used nuclear fuel and that both me and my parents are still alive and not glowing green. It's a shame that such fuel is not reused as a big punch against climate change but instead it is used just as an excuse to justify the existence and the possibility to harvest more money by the local "environmental" NGOs. Germany did not learn anything from Italy's mistake, bad luck for them too. Chris, do not believe that, just because you signed a contract, your electricity will actually come from wind and solar, it is just a syntetic count, your consumption will just be counted as part of the quota produced by wind and solar; since the vast majority of the energy hungry factories do not give a shit about the source of their electricity, this is a zero cost addition for all electricity providers. However, since electricity is neither easily transported nor easily stored (the cost of your car before incentives is a demonstration of that), the electrons that will flow on your car will actually come from that NPP, in particular if you charge during night and at least for the duration of the car leasing, then the source will sadly become coal or fossil gas. So, be happy to use for some years a clean, carbon free source, also if it is not the one you expect. I will also probably buy an ID3; in north west of Italy during night the electricity is coming from France, nuclear source of course, this is reported by electricitymap website. This is one of the reasons why I could buy an EV: my actual electricity source. Finally, there is no possibility that the south of Germany will be fully or for the most part powered by Wind and solar, too much population, too many factories and too few Wind and sun to be harvested. There is a reason why Elon went near Berlin, north of Germany has more Wind, so Tesla can green wash itself better, in Germany too.

Maybe the battery indicator turns red at 20% because it is better for the health of the battery to be between 20 and 80%. This looks like a very fine car. Wish VW would bring them to Canada.

[@idparkinson]

The customer does not need to worry about the 20/80 rule as the battery is already protected by the manufacturer. The battery is larger than the quoted usable capacity. So you can never get it to a real 0%, the 0% you see will really be at least 10% remaining, same at the top end, you can never fill the battery you can only reach the 100% that VW limit the charge to.

[@Gresteh]

@@idparkinson Yes and no, the car has a 6% buffer(difference between gross and net battery sizes), for the customer to not have to worry about the 20/80 rule the car should have a 40% buffer and that's a huge waste of battery capacity and weight. Customers need to be careful about battery discharge, but the 6% buffer wil prevent major damage unless you drain your battery too many times.

I appreciate the test. But in my opinion this is not the actual test people want to see. Would appreciate a 110km/hr test because that is the actual highway speed most people drive at. Great video.

[@BatteryLife]

There is a 130 kmh test and a 1000km test.

[@Khalsa-bt7jx]

Battery Life oh yes there is. My apologies. I just saw your video of 130km/hr.

[@rcajavus8141]

how is the handling? its a loooong wheelbase with big wheels, like upper class saloon of 90's, actually +3 cm to lets say Renault Safrane!! and its rear wheeel drive, must be super in straight line on road!!! :) and that front wheel lock, how is exiting parking spots and backing up? must be super manouverable with that wheels turned and going backward!

[@BatteryLife]

Handling is awesome. Brakes need good pressure when you drive sporty.

@@BatteryLife great, that I ordered too. Next spring will be electric 😁

[@PassivIncomeProject]

Schönes Auto, glückwunsch.:) ABER warum so langsam? Da ist ja a polnischer Truckdriver faster :) also einen Test hätte ich mir mit min 120-130 km/h gewünscht. vllt beim nächsten mal.

[@BatteryLife]

Konstante 90 simulieren den normalen Gebrauch eines Elektroautos in der Stadt, Landstraße und etwas Autobahn. Der 90 kmh Test kommt normalerweise sehr nahe an den Wltp Test ran.

[@Tehamed21]

Genau, 90km/h durchschnittlich würde ich mein Profil übers Jahr sehen. Ab und zu Autobahn um Verwandte zu besuchen. Auto passt von der Größe, Reichweite, Ladegeschwindigkeit (15 min für 200km Reichweite) ist wirklich super und auch Frauchentauglich. Ich warte persönlich auf nächstes Jahr und den cupra el Born, finde ich optisch hübscher auch wenn er einige Tausender mehr kosten wird.

Very good range given the price range

[@columlynch4229]

I'm very happy for you 👍but at the end of the day it's still only a car . Maybe some day you'll get over it but your so up there it may take some time.

Is it PAID?
