So much recuperation happens in D mode anyway, the difference between a driver that has an economical driving style in an ID3 and one that doesn't is far smaller than for an ICE car with no regen function.
I agree with this. In the past, for fun, I used to drive as economically as possible. In the past I was once able to get 93mpg out of an Audi A2 without a tail wind[!], and got 100,000 miles out of the brake pads on a VW Touran. If economy is interesting to you try www.spritmonitor.de [in English.]
But the range I can get out of our ID3 depends little on the speed I drive on the motorway, but the loss of range in winter is dramatic as my wife likes to keep warm.

I thought
"The latest ID. models (from end of 2021) can preheat both the interior and the battery whilst connected to the grid"
was an interesting bit.
Not when you’ve got an earlier version! Just jealous.
You can after 3.0 has been installed though cant you, once the upgraded 12 v Battery visit to the dealers has been done?
