Petrol hot hatches are now 400BHP and weigh 500Kg less. I think this is warm hatch at best. Also can you imagine the negative impact on the already limited range if you drive it spirited!
321hp and 545nm and comparable acceleration to a Fiesta ST with 200hp and 320nm. Either this is badly engineered or weight has THAT much downside. to it.
Hot hatchback weighing 1.9 tons??? Acceleration dynamics 7.3 seconds??? just like a ten year old Skoda Octavia 1.8??? Maximum speed 180 km/h ??? Is it a little hotter than the Ford Tranzit??? but no, it’s not hotter, since the battery at that speed will be discharged in 15 minutes. A laggy 5-inch thick tablet straight out of 2010??? or is this a green initiative: reusing components straight from the Chinese garbage dump??? The trunk is the size of a glove box??? GPT chatbot that will transfer your personal data to third party companies??? And then it will update and offer you a paid subscription to turn signals??? (just like a BMW) And all this pleasure for some measly 50 thousand euros??? Give me two please, one light green with a rainbow interior for my wife, but for myself I’ll probably take a light brown one with a pink interior since it will have a higher residual value upon resale.
Feels like a cash grab to shift the id3 parts bin, vw designers ( if we can really call them that) have dropped the ball for several years, the phasing out of manuals the golfs gti haptic feed back system, the poor interfaces, the lack of basic functions ( illiumination) and the ugly litterally tacked on screens sticking out of the dash that will probs get ripped off by some peoples kids or be a target for crime, they need to go back to the drawing board asap ! But i'll leave my pitch fork in the garage locker untill the gti ev is closer to release.
This has all the ingredients to be awesome, but seems like VW haven't really tried!
Check out the Cupra Born VZ…the VW performance brand
Cool video...as a BMW fan...I chuckled at the outro when you mentioned BMW in error. Cheers! (subbing...look forward to your next video)
Over 50,000 BMW and Merc recalled!!
This is more about just making an ID3 look a bit cooler. 99.9% of people won't care about its handling but as a daily driver it looks much better.
White Chino's - says it all! 🤣🤣
Jordan is the perfect VW fan-boy 🤭
I’ll wait for the Cupra Born VZ, it’s more performance oriented
Nearly 1900kg .....
Hot hatch😮
its how it is these days i guess
Where is your review of the new ID-4 please?
"all that's left to do is drive it"
Proceeds to end the video.
What about my id.3 2020 ? Can I upgrade the multimedia ? Or I'm still lab rat :)?
VW have your money now. No need to upgrade you. They just want you to buy the new, upgraded version (even more profitable) 😉
321hp and 321 tons....
I enjoyed watching the Video 😊

You what? Petrol Golf GTi 0-60 is 5.8secs, ID3 GTx is 5.5secs.hardly warm hatch.
@ Golf GTi only warm hatch now. The VW hot hatch is the Golf R.
@ crikey around 4secsonds is hot , 5.5 is warm. 6+ I guess is lukewarm these days.
0-60 mph time seems slow considering the power. A Kia Soul EV with 200bhp can do a 7 second 0-60 using a satellite timer.

MG with 400 hp and 0-60 in 3.8 seems like a better buy.
Can't get the xpower version with the extended range tho, so 144 KW charging vs 175 and "only" 385Km range vs almost 600Km.
Oh no, not another VW the marque so beloved by Auto Express but not us 'real' car folks.
That quoted 0-62 time seems super slow; old ID.4 AWD is nearly 0.5s faster with like 50 less HP and 500 more lbs.
Agreed. VW is probably holding it back so they can sell an R version next year for 40% more.
I'll wait for RTX Super
ID3 GTX Ti
pcm ! PCM ! PCM ! (i think this joke might go over ppls heads lol).
Approx £50,000 you’ve got to be joking!
which doesnt even look as good as the leaf
I bet it will be more expensive than the Tesla 3 Performance. Which makes it pointless...
Don't push it to hard it might explode
XPOWER is better & cheaper !! 😊
Pointless! The interior is awful the range not realistic! VW continue to fall!
What a joke
weaesad
💤💤💤💤💤💤💤 boring
Talking to fast and not driving.... Pointless video
Please speak slower..!!
