Volkswagen ID.3: Specifications & Consumer information

Weight

The values for the curb weight in the following tables apply to a vehicle ready for operation. This includes a driver weighing 75 kg (approx. 165 lbs), fluids and tools and a replacement tire if applicable. Optional equipment and retrofitted equipment will increase the specified curb weight and reduce the possible load.

The load consists of the following weight:

• Passengers.

• All luggage inside and outside the Volkswagen ID.3 vehicle.

• Attachments.

The permitted total vehicle weight and the gross axle weight rating must never be exceeded. The permissible values are indicated on the safety compliance label or on the identification label on the B-pillar on the driver's side (→ Safety certificate) (→ Identification label) .

Performance

These values apply only in ideal road and weather conditions.

The performance was determined without equipment that limits performance, such as add-on parts.

Incline angle

The incline angle is the specification up to which the vehicle is able to drive uphill on an angle with its own power.

This can depend on the road conditions, the weather conditions, and the engine power, among other things. The values apply to a vehicle that is in motion and not to a vehicle that starts to drive form a stationary position.

A rising difference in altitude (incline) on a 100 m (approx. 300 ft) stretch is given in percentage or degrees (100% = 45 degrees).
