Currently reading: Volkswagen ID 3 specifications cut due to chip shortage

Electric hatchback is now temporarily available only in £35,825 Life specification in the UK

The Volkswagen ID 3 has had several specifications temporarily removed in the UK due to the ongoing international semiconductor crisis. 

The electric hatchback is now available only in Life specification, which is based on the 200bhp ID 3 Pro Performance, equipped with a 58kWh battery capable of a 259 mile range.

With the ID 3 Life priced from £35,835, it means there's currently no ID 3 on sale that meets the criteria for the UK government’s £1500 Plug-in Car Grant grant.
