Despite its long history as a car manufacturer, Volkswagen claims it has only really had two chapters so far. The first was when it introduced the original Beetle, the second came with the launch and subsequent generations of the Golf. The fact that the German brand"s new electric car will be called the ID.3 then is hugely significant. That 3 essentially stands for third chapter". We"ve known that VW"s first purpose-built electric car was coming since the ID. concept was unveiled back in 2016 at the Paris Motor Show. We also knew that it would be a hatchback sitting on the brand-new MEB platform, which would then also be used to roll out production versions of the ID Crozz, ID Buzz, ID Vizzion and ID Roomzz concepts. Thankfully for Z buttons on keyboards across the land these will mirror the ID.3 by using model numbers rather than names.
