Behold: the Volkswagen ID.3 – the final version of a new series of all-electric vehicles on which the company is now betting its future.
Due for release in 2020 and looking like a smoothed-out Golf, the base model (of three) will have a 330km range, topping out at 550km for the top end model. A 25cm screen and a series of touch sensitive panels control everything except the windows and hazard lights.
Pricing starts at €30,000 (in Germany), after grants.

what do you mean, ‘after grants’?
Leccy cars are subsidised by the govt to the tune of 5k off their sticker price. The dealer sorts it out.
So what you are saying is Electric cars are 5k more expensive in Ireland than they are in the rest of the eurozone ? :-)
Spot on Phil.
Probably more
Nah, kinda lost all interest in these internetty electric cars which can be remotely disabled and switched off by Malachi in accounts if he inadvertently ignores this month’s PCP payment.

It’s not just electric cars that can be remotely disabled.

Eh
No
just wondering has anyone done their driving test yet in one of these EV yokes & how the examiners perceived it?
I assume you’d only get a licence to drive an automatic car if you choose to do it that way, yes?
Are you giving one away?
