    Volkswagen ID.3

    The Volkswagen ID.3 is a small electric hatchback built on the Volkswagen Group's dedicated EV platform. It is listed as discontinued in the Australian data and is not currently part of Volkswagen Australia's new-car range. Overseas, the ID.3 was designed as an electric successor in spirit to the Golf, with rear-wheel drive, efficient packaging and a minimalist cabin. Its relevance locally is tied to Volkswagen's broader electric rollout, which has focused first on SUVs and vans. The ID.3's appeal is its compact size, clean-sheet EV platform and European hatchback character. If it returns or is replaced locally, it would suit buyers wanting a smaller Volkswagen EV below the ID.4 and ID.5.
