VW ID.3 entry model compared to the Golf in name debate

A discussion among German tech and auto observers argues that Volkswagen's entry-level ID.3 neo competes in the same class as the Golf, and that calling it the ID.Golf would have been the smarter marketing move — just as the ID.7 could have been named ID.Passat. The remark taps into ongoing debate over whether VW should have carried its iconic nameplates into its electric line-up instead of building new branding.

Why now: VW's decision to use entirely new names for its electric models remains a contested marketing question among German car fans.

• @ Macnutzer94 Der ID.3 neo spielt ja in der Liga. Hätten sie ja auch einfach ID.Golf nennen können. Wäre vom Marketing her wahrscheinlich die bessere Strategie gewesen. Wie den ID.7 ID.Passat zu nennen. # EAuto # Golf # VW # Elektroauto @ heiseautos · Mr_GHARice · 1
