OK so "Entry Level" for me is the base price right? So it will be £23,000 and will have a range of 324 miles? Right?
New Volkswagen ID.3: entry-level Pure Performance joins line-up
Volkswagen’s most affordable ID.3 is on sale now, priced from £28,370, offering a maximum range of 217 miles
When you go to the VW site and look at [quote=https://www.volkswagen.co.uk/electric/electric-cars/id3.html#build-and-compare]RRP prices[/quote]. You see that £23k has become nearly £30k. Sure some dealers may get you a better price but that is the RRP.
Personally, if I had the guaranteed income I'd reach the extra 10k and go for the Tesla. But I average about 4-5 months of each year without a job these days, so I can't take a 3-5 year finance deal. Guess I'll have to stick with 7-12 year old cars then...
Because I know all of this, it is hardly a surprise to me. But how does the unsuspecting punter, faced with a dealer who doesn't want to sell this car, work out what they hell they are going to buy? Of when they do buy it they find out they have to recharge after having driven 117 miles less than expected.
