The benefits of buying electric

Aside from the benefits to the environment, buying an electric vehicle has many advantages for drivers. Lower running and maintenance costs mean owning an electric model is cheaper, while zero emissions means road tax rates are significantly lower. Instant torque delivery also makes acceleration rapid, making for a highly responsive drive.

Key benefits include:

  • No CO2 or NOx emissions, meaning a reduced impact on the environment
  • Cheaper running and maintenance costs
  • Lower road tax
  • Instant torque delivery for quicker acceleration
  • Government incentives for vehicles and wall box chargers

How do you charge an electric car?

Close

Charging your electric vehicle is simple. Just plug it into a suitable power source and it will charge up. There are several types of chargers available with installation grants available for your home. This will depend on what suits you.   

How long does it take to charge an electric car?

Close

Charging your new Volkswagen probably wont take as long as you think. This will depend on what type of charging station you use. At home with a 7kW wall box, you can charge your electric vehicle from empty to full overnight. With a 50kW rapid charger, you can add up to 100 miles of range in around 35 minutes. There are other factors that may affect how fast your electric car charges. These include:

  • Temperature (very hot or very cold)
  • How full the battery is (charging the last 20% of capacity is slower)
  • How much power the vehicle can accept (each vehicle has a built in limit)

In general, we recommend that you do not charge your electric car fully every day. This protects the battery.

How far can an electric car travel on one charge?

Close

Battery technology has come a long way since the first electric vehicle was produced. Now, you can go so much further. Range will be affected by some factors including air conditioning, driving conditions and what kind of road the vehicle is driving on. The ID.3 comes with the choice of three battery sizes. The ID.3's fast charging batteries have an impressive range of up to 336 miles.
