Power reserve Volkswagen ID.3 58 (62) kWh, at 90 km / h - 437 km, at 130 km / h - 282 km. Very good! [video]

Battery Life was the first to test VW ID.3 coverage in excellent weather. Maintaining a constant speed of 1 km / h (90 km / h), the car was able to overcome 93 km while maintaining a 415% power reserve, at 5 km / h (130 km / h), it covered 133 km by 270%. battery.

Real mileage of Volkswagen ID.3 in very good weather

Let's start with a caveat: the creator of the Battery Life channel actually came out of nowhere and received a number of privileges that other VW ID.3 1st owners could only dream of. For this reason, we should treat him as at least a privileged YouTuber. In addition, Volkswagen is focused on increasing sales and communicating with customers online, so we wouldn't be surprised if any YouTuber, Facebook group creator, or website owner were part of that strategy.

Which may or may not mean that the test is unreliable.

VW ID.3 1st Plus participated in the experiment with a 58 (62) kWh battery, i.e. a C-segment car with a 150 kW (204 hp) engine driving the rear wheels. The air conditioner sometimes worked, sometimes not, the weather, as we mentioned, was lovely. The car has achieved really great results:

Flight range at 90 km / h = 437 km

The test driving at a speed of 90 km / h lasted almost 5 hours. During this time, the car covered 415 kilometers at an average speed of 87 km / h and a consumption of 13,1 kWh / 100 km (131 Wh / km). So when the battery is discharged to zero The power reserve of the VW ID.3 will be 437 kilometers with a leisurely drive.... This is an excellent result considering that according to the WLTP standard a car should cover just over 420 units.

If you go in the 80-> 10 percent range, it will be 306 kilometers.

During the test, the driver switched between screens and they worked smoothly, so his experience was completely different from that of the Auto Motor und Sport journalists:

> German (!) Auto Motor und Sport disappointed in VW ID.3. “Product quality? The car should be half the price "

There was a disclaimer on the maps that they were out of date and in need of updating online, although the screen showed that the vehicle joke online. The car's gauges and the multimedia system showed different battery charge values ​​(10 versus 11 percent, 2 versus 4 percent), and at some point the car began to overestimate the average speed by less than 6 percent (92 instead of 87 km / h):

However, the mistakes were minor, and even if they did, they did not last long.

Flight range at 130 km / h = 282 km (100% batteries)

Queue when driving on the highway 130 km / h (odometer 133 km / h) Volkswagen ID.3 covered 270 kilometers. using 97 percent of the available battery charge (98 or 96 percent, the meters showed mixed values). Google Maps data shows that the distance was slightly greater (+ 1,4%), so with this value, we have 274 km for 97% of the battery and 282 km when batteries are discharged to zero.

The energy consumption recorded by the meter was 20,7 kWh.

At the start of the test at 130 km / h, the outside temperature was 26 degrees Celsius, and after driving and charging, the battery needed to be slightly warmed up. The higher temperature contributes to the possibility of obtaining a cell capacity above the nominal value. In fairness, however, it should be added that the driver was using an air conditioner set at 20,5 degrees Celsius, operating in ECO mode, which in turn increased energy consumption, so the two must be balanced.

The advantage of the car was the absence of restrictions in maintaining the achieved speed even with a strongly discharged battery. There are limits on the available power, but it's safe to assume that the buffer battery will allow you to drive at least 1-2 kilometers below zero.
