Volkswagen ID.3, the electric car in which the German manufacturer has high hopes for 2020, seems to have a lot of problems that could even lead to a postponement of its launch. According to a publication from Germany, the Volkswagen ID.3 would generate up to 300 software errors per day for the engineers who test the car, a huge figure if we consider that it is a car that must be driven on public roads by customers.
Volkswagen ID.3 it is being tested intensively at the moment before the release scheduled for the summer of this year, and from what was found in the German press, the software problems are big enough for it to be postponed. Electric cars have very complex software that controls their various components, and in the case of the Volkswagen ID.3 it seems that it was not prepared well enough to be included in a mass-produced car.
Volkswagen ID.3: the big PROBLEMS that could postpone the launch
Volkswagen ID.3 for now, no postponement of the launch has been officially announced, the people from Volkswagen announcing that there is no question of not putting the car on sale in the summer, but they did not deny the problems either. It is normal for Volkswagen not to make any announcement regarding a possible postponement of the launch, and this is because the Volkswagen ID.3 is an extremely important car for the manufacturer, it is the basis of its entry into the 100% electric car market.
Volkswagen ID.3 it is scheduled for release at a price of approximately 30.000 dollars, and the German company needs it to take the pressure off it after the Dieselgate scandal. Volkswagen ID.3 would also be the beginning of "electrification" for Volkswagen, the manufacturer wanting to launch several dozen models in the entire group in the next two years, so these software problems could represent a huge problem in the long term.
Volkswagen ID.3 remains, for now, officially set for release in 2020, it's possible that any major software issues will be resolved by then, but from what we see now, the situation is serious.
