Everyone is thrilled to learn more about the new Volkswagen ID.3 here in Colorado Springs (all across the USA and the world for that matter), especially here at Bob Penkhus Volkswagen. This new compact five-door hatchback electric vehicle, originating as a concept car back in 2016, is giving us a taste of the future for electric cars. We will take a look at this Volkswagen EV set for 2020 by examining the price, configurations, EV range, safety, specifications, how the ID.3 differs from the popular VW Golf, and when/if the VW ID.3 will make its way to the USA.

New Volkswagen ID.3 Reveal & Release Date
The Volkswagen ID.3 will first begin production in November 2019. The ID.3 is the first EV to be built on Volkswagen's new MEB (Modular Electric Toolkit also known as MEB architecture) platform. There are already over 30,000 pre-orders. The first set of deliveries are scheduled for Summer 2020, so look for a public release shortly after that. Still, as of October 2019, we don't expect to see any deliveries in the U.S. If the company does decide to give us this VW EV ID, it wouldn't be until at least sometime in 2021-2022 depending on how popular and well-received the new ID.3 is in Europe. However, there is a higher chance that the new teased VW ID.4 crossover is coming to the United States, but that is all but confirmed as of yet. SUVs and Crossovers are all the craze in the US right now and would fit right into most manufacturers business models. If so, this new VW EV crossover will be based on the I.D. CROZZ Concept vehicle.Â
