VW boss Herbert Diess wants to set a good example when it comes to electromobility. To do this, he drove to Lake Garda with the ID.3 in a media-effective manner. But that backfired.
Malcesine (Italy) - In September the time has come: Then the new VW ID.3 with “electrifying performance” will come onto the market, as car manufacturer Volkswagen promises. And in order to tease it in a media-effective manner, the head of the car manufacturer subjected himself to a "two-week challenge" .
In the end, he congratulated the engineers at the Wolfsburg plant: “Congratulations to the team in Wolfsburg and Zwickau under the leadership of Thomas Ulbrich and to the many partners from the supplier industry! Thank you! The enormous effort over the past few weeks has paid off. The vehicle worked great! "
What sounds positive all round, many users in the social networks do not believe. One of them rigorously disguises the ID.3: “I've driven pretty much all electric cars, only the Taycan delivers what it promises. The rest is not even suitable for a trip to the outskirts of Berlin ... ” Another finally comments: “ The interior is as scary cheap as a Dacia. ” You can read the complete article about the test drive of the ID.3 by Herbert Diess at 24auto.de * * 24auto.de is part of the Ippen-Digital network
