The gimmick I enjoy above all is the way the interior lighting signals where to turn when using the satnav. I am interested to see whether this will still function when using Android Auto. Does anyone know?

That’s the ID light, and apparently it does not work with other nav apps - which is a shame, maybe that will change at some point 🤞

After over 45 years of driving and over 40 cars, this is my first new car - 'Life Pro with alloys and heat pump' , collected on 23rd December. I have been waiting for an affordable EV which was would handle our regular 150 mile journeys, would go, stop and steer in safety and comfort. The ID3 ticks all these boxes superbly, way beyond my preconceptions.
When some of the tech features (which I didn't know in needed!!) occasionally fall short of their potential I just remind myself what a great overall package it us.

I love its appearance and quick, near silent performance and its spacious cabin.

A bit late to this but now after a few months of ownership here are our likes.

The lights, they are great, we live in the Styx and the lights following the road is way more than a gimmick, it has saved us from hitting boar. Also, the auto-dim is brilliant. We have a RR and it is nowhere near as good as our iD3 (which we call Rose (different dimension))

The acceleration. Oh how I have so much fun with sport mode and going up hills with those other sporty brands being left in the dust.

Voice recognition. Once internet connected its stunning. I feel it’s on the edge of talking back.

The HUD with AR - this is great, really good implementation.

Internet radio - great to get Yorkshire Radio in Barcelona.

USBC ports - it’s the little things.

Wireless charging - it’s the big things.

And finally, the lights again, as they blink and look around.

Love it.

My best bits after three weeks (I've stated my small issues elsewhere).

- Warming the car up in the cold from the app, we've still got frosts here in April, bloody brilliant having that.
- Handling of it is superb, I've already found the limit a couple of times, but great all round.
- Acceleration on the 204PS is excellent
- Range is as expected currently as it's been cold, when we had a couple of warm days it was pretty good.
- I actually like the touch screen, some people criticised it as laggy, and it can be when opening the door to turn the charging off etc, but on the whole pretty good.
- Sound system is actually good, although the lack of rear speakers... oh well.
- Build quality feels very good, as you would expect
- Very roomy inside considering the size of the car
